Hey I just wanted to say thanks appreciate all the knowledge your giving out for free. It usually takes a long time to be able to pick somebody's brain enough to get the information you need to do what you want to do and I know that first-hand experience and I'm still learning that, but yeah very nice work and I look forward to possibly seeing you out on the track or just meeting one day. Take care
That mower looks bad ass . Great video . Love the color . Im currently building one not for racing but just for fun . If i have any questions ill be sure to ask u . #smallenginenation.#keepwrenchin
I picked up that hood scoop at Autozone, of all places. It is a full functioning, full working hood scoop. I cut approximately a 10" whole in the hood underneath the scoop for the air to flow through to the motor. My thoughts were it is an air cooled motor, so more air flow is better. I do have to ad that I also like the look!!!
+b1zzl3 Greetings, Thanks for watching my video series. The local club or chapter rules usually determine whether or not you can run handlebars. The club that I race in follows the USLMRA rule set, and the USLMRA rules do not allow motorcycyle style handlebars. I am aware of some local clubs in our area that are running handlebars, but they are following their own club rules. Check with the local club that you plan on racing with and get a copy of their rules, so you don't get flagged during safety inspection. Something to consider. When you change the steering to a direct steering method, such as what I have done in these videos you loose the mechanical advantage that is gained by having the gear steering from the factory. Losing this mechanical advantage, creates a lot of pressure on the steering components. If I were to put a motorcycle type of steering or handlebars on one of my machines, it would be motorcycle clamp system, or gooseneck. It needs to be able to handle the pressure and a double clamp system, like what you find on motorcycles, 3 wheelers, 4 wheelers...etc. would be the best. I hope this answers your question. Thanks for watching.
