    Lawnmower Races

     



    My son-in-laws project this summer
    A lawnmower with a YZ250 2 stroke dirt bike engine
    He won the drag races, he was twice as fast as the closest competition
    My wife said he must be brave, I told her there is a fine line between brave and crazy.
    Here is a video on You Tube

    Yeah, I'd say he was faster.

    Brave, very brave.
    Not crazy at all.
    Makes perfect sense.

    Man leroy screams! I'd be scared of the sensitve steering on those little rider mowers, be really easy to flip one at those speeds! Looks like a fun sport!
