Racing Mower Builds / Re: Building a V-twin racer
« on: September 19, 2010, 02:53:40 pm »
George,      I like the way the SuperMod looks.  Personally, I would like to build one that had that same look, but with a smaller engine.  I don't need to go as fast as a 70+ hp V-twin can carry me.  Maybe use a V-twin with minor modifications for durability and not necessarily maximum HP.  I just like the low, mean look vs. a mower that looks like a grass cutting machine.
  Is the right hand drive you used on your SuperMod similar to a Peerless 1000 Series.  Snapper uses that gearbox on their MZM Z-riders to drive the blades.  I could probably find one of those lying around the shop.  Guess I'm trying to figure out what parts I need to start a winter project.

George,
I saw where you used the vertical engine instead of the horizontal.  Why do you choose that configuration ?  I know the vertical engine is easier to come by at my dealership.

Thanks Tom,  I'll check out that video.  You know, it really makes good sense for someone in the lawnmower business to build a racing mower !!

Thanks Justin,  Your mower shows that you have put a lot of time and effort into it.  Nice Job !!  I live in South Carolina.  Tom and I race together in the Dunlop Roadrace Series.  You're right, he is fun to race against and will help anyone, anywhere, anytime. 
Thanks George.  I will take a look at the build section

Thanks for the info Justin.  This was my first post on this site. After watching my friend Tom Cole report last weekend at the races in Ohio, I must admit my interest in lawnmower racin' has peaked !!

Can you tell me which mower is the "Preferred Mower" to use ?  I plan to use a V-twin engine.  Just want to start with the right mower. 
Thanks
