LIKE A BOSS!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzULJ2Fau9k&feature=related

 

18hp Briggs, like a boss!! We took the mower deck off, but haven't got to drive it around yet. My friend has a racing go kart, but it's spendy to take it to the track... so I said we could just buy old lawn mowers and race them around the hood... LOL... he was instantly hooked on the idea. This clean machine came with a different hood/front end but the guy offered us an old front end for it for free. Might just make it an off road machine.

if that has a Briggs 18 hp,,make DAM sure the engine air deflectors are ALL on the engine,,the 18 horse engine had a metal plate that cover'd up the spark plug a bit more then normal and a lot of not so bright people remove'd metal from that area,, this causes the exh valve seat to over heat and come loose,,

pretty much distroying the engine

just a word of warning , air cool'd engines are just that , no air flow and that area over heats quickly

Lawnmower racing is big around here. I have done a lot of work on racing mowers. There are a few stockers but everybody races F/X class. The rules are wide open.

Montgomery Ward, son. Can't handle that.

Weren't any cheap Wards mowers for sale, otherwise, I'd be all over that. Had to settle for that Limited Edition ish.
