How do I loosen mower up
« on: September 20, 2015, 11:19:17 am »
My mower keeps picking up rear tire. More air in rr helped for a few laps but also lost a lot of rubber from spinning coming off corner. I race sp class. Please help. Thanks.

Which tire, the left rear? You want it to come up, some.
If it is LR tire, how much is is coming up? What is the circumference of the LR and the RR tires?
Is there any chassis "bind" when pushing the mower by hand and turning left, versus pushing it in a straight line?

Rr is biting too hard causing mower to lift on two tires and I have to get out of the throttle. Don't know what u mean about chassis bind. All my mowers push better going straight because of the straight axle (posi). Always try to stagger tires.  I need back of my mower to slide a little bit entering corner but hook coming off. I know I want a lot but the guy I race (Charles ford) is always hooked up

So, you are bicycling? Both inside tires (front and rear) are picking up off the ground?

Then increase RR tire pressure 1/4-1/2 PSI at a time.
