so our shop was asked to participe in a charity/drinking event this coming saturday... we have to build a racing lawnmower to do an oval race, drag, and tug-a-war... so we have been putting in some time to get it rocking after we close up every day... figured since it is a cool ass project i would share some pics... we started this on monday and have to race it on Saturday
started out with a lawnmower and an old enticer i had laying around... my aunt actually bought this brand new in the 70's hahaha
from there we started on the rear end used a carrier out of a raptor 660 and took some alum stock and tapped it as well as added bracing and welded it up
then for the carrier main beam support
shaved the wells
rear end test fit (rear axle and sprocket from 660) wheels are off a yamaha quad and some old tires we had around the shop
then pulled the sled motor and dropped it in for mock up
rebuilt the carb
front axel and spindalls out of a golf cart
we have a roller
