Look in the race mower build. You can find a lot of good ideas there.
That's what I do I have not built one yet but have torn down some mowers
For when I do.

go to the track and ask questions   :)    Look for a used mower at the track

Before you do anything go to the track.   There is a race on the 24th.

I'd suggest to start out with a GP.  That is the biggest class and a great one to start out in.  And yes you should be able to buy a mower cheaper than you can build one.

I won't be at that race.  We have other plans.
