right now i'm running a 500 peerless ragb thinkn switching it to a 700 peerless tranny when i find one, which should be simple but having thoughts of running a 1 to 1 ragb to kept from having to shift, not sure this will work in a drag racing mower or not, was running a stock 11hp briggs switchn to a not so stock 18hp oppy, were racing 100ft drags, some on dirt some on tar, what is the norm in the drag racing world? any input on perfered drivetrans would help me make up my mind as of now i shift my 500 ragb during the race but hope my new motor will give me enough power to kept from having to shift i like to stick with the live axl with my disc brakes setup on it. any input good or bad is great thanks
I agree George. I used spindles flipped last year. Grind the welds and use the spindle side for the axle and vice versa. Makes the racer lower and wider and does not change the camber if done right. I don't think he actually means upside down.
Up side down and all the angles will be wrong... you'll be wobblin' like a three wheel shopping cart..
