Title: Mowerstompins "Turf Stock" Class Build 2013
Post by: Mowerstompin on May 20, 2013, 09:46:02 pm
This is the same class Zippy13n runs. We run with a set of rules based off of ARMA but changed with the agreement of group. I've got a good bit of pictures here to post up and would have posted them as I built but I couldn't remember too. I have a bunch more pictures of the early stages but they are on my broken HTC which I might can get off one day and post them up. Anyways, I'll get some better ones but these are the ones I've tookin with this not so good new phone haha.

Still got a bit more to do, like getting the motor right, painting and a bit more body work.

I'ma try to get the old ones from when I first started one day soon.

Thanks guys, Cody.

We would consider going If It wasn't such a far drive and gas wasn't like It is. I know they race up in rogers, Paragould, and hope, Arkansas. Even hope is a good drive for us. But one day, maybe we could come race with yea. Have to see about rules, not sure If we could run In open class or not.

Well... If the price is right he'll roll backup driver. He kinda complaints a lot though, always inspecting the rig for bugs, and juicy objects. But yea know, You gotta do what you gotta do I guess :D

Question why you wana swap out the kohler for brigs. That kohler should make a lot power with mods in it way better then a brigs or do you guys have to run stock interals.

They all run oppy's and I run a single. I can run whatever I want to the engine. My problem is cost, I can get parts all day for a Briggs. Kohler on the other hand I've gotta work to find the parts, and then they will cost me a hand and leg. Then I'll have to take out the balancer and get someone to make a new billet balancer shaft, then weld the gear that runs the fuel pump on the end. That'd cost me money there, because I can turn the engine much over 5000 if any without that balancer shaft snapping.


All in all, think It'd be less of a headace to go with the briggs, but I really dunno haha.
