Battery Reconditioning Review The mower racing is becoming a
regular sport. Local newspapers report the results, sponsors are
looking for the best racer in order to get the first position in the
next local or even state race. Races draw thousands of fans due to
the fact that a lot of lawnmower racing races have been scheduled
from town to town. There are no purses and typically no betting in
terms of mowers racing. Therefore, they have no desire for lucre, it
is only a hobby to work and enjoy. We can say that it is only for the
glory. Most of the machines which work in these races are
long-retired ones that racers rebuild for racing.
On
the other hand, we must say that there exists different levels of
classification; from stock racers that still cut grass, or mowers
without blades, which have been removed, to factory experimental
mowers on which the platforms intended to cover the blades are
strictly decorative. This is the grass roots of mower sport, lawn
mower racing started here. Mowers are defined as run-behind mowers,
and it is easy to understand, what you see is what you get. The only
thing that you need is to acquire an old petrol engined cylinder
driven mower and race it.
This
group is split into 2 main groups for roller and wheel driven mowers.
Those mower's types have a lot of similarities to race. The wheel
driven mowers tend to be heavier and wider but offer better traction
in slipper conditions. By far this is the most popular group at the
moment. Lawn mowers are always wheel driven machines with the rider
sat on the machine. This also tends to be the fastest group with
mowers capable of reaching speeds up to 40mph.
This
group was introduced for 2002, and is described in the Rules &
Regulations as a small bonneted tractor, which effectively opens this
class up to a wide range of mowers. Drivers in this class should be
able to compete against Group 3 machines.
