Ladies and Gentlemen coming to the ALL American. I will say this again, as I keep getting asked over and over.... #1 Safety rules are zero tolerance and the #1 rule mandated by our insurance IS, IF your not running a govner and or running more than 3650 for any reason Billet flywheels are MANDATORY. Zero tolerance on this. Also be sure you have a fire extinguisher in your pit and have it visible. The fire last year on track made this a bigger priorty. Dont be suprised if the local fire marshal spot checks for this.

Does anyone video all the feature races of each class George ? Sell the footage? Sounds like an awesome event and when ready hopefully come down in a few years. :)
owen
-
I wear a helemt cam in the Super mod fearure. I have a person doing interviews and some videoing for a highlight video. But as for all feattures and selling. NO. I had someone take pictures over 1000 and put on a cd for sale. That didnt sell. Everyone seems to have someone recording their own race but not many seem to hit the net.
-
I think I've watched atleast 1000 different Lawnmower racing video's on the net and would buy a DVD of the All American races. Guess it would cost a bit to get a camera guy. Anyways , great job on all effort you put out on this great sport and setting up this awesome event!! Kick some grass

You could run it with the limited mod Twins. They are governed v-twins open ration. Dont let the super mod style chasssis setup scare. You will be just as fast
