I think you need to bring that mower on up to Sparta NC the 27th and race with us.  Give some details on it.

It's tuff to "classify it" with out a thorough tech or look over, but...as far as USLMRA rules...

"From the pic" it looks near "stock height and width" so close to an IMOW specs...With a governed engine and a 9:1 ratio...and if you added a mower like deck to it... you would be close...

But with the description of OHV engine... that takes you out of the running (Flatheads required)...

As you can see, you almost need to get a copy of the "rules" (any organization) and build to the rules to fit a particular class..

Often the "too many things to list"... list, will disqualify you somewhere along the line...and adjustments may need to be made...

As far as running with us all you'd have to do is put a simulated deck on it.  You would run in our small OHV class.

oh yea squidd I appreciate your input and will be looking towards building a mower to US specs later on, right now I don't know of any uslmra sanctioned clubs in this area NC or SC thats within driving distance (reasonable) I got a copy of the uslmra rules but they are a little vague I am sure there is a lot of stuff that a build clinic would clear up, but with a little time and $$$ I will get there eventually. :P
