im fairly new to the sport and have started to build a drag mower and was wondering if there were any race locations in PA at all? also have a few questions on my build is lengthening of frame a good idea (im a fairly good fabricator and welder) and was wondering if it was good or bad to do this thought id ask someone with more experience at this sport

Most of the mower drag racing guys I had dealing with were in Texas.. They were the one who helped me with my Billet Flywheel in 2001. Over the years I have lost contact with them, but they had a large club there. FYI..there ET's were 2.1sec in 150ft..

So i hear that there will be 2 mowchines with chevy 350's in this years race during horse thief festival. Unfortunately i don't think my mowchine will be ready or that i will even be able to make it to Knox for this years race.

They both were beat by a briggs last Thursday...on dirt though.
