Lawn Tractor Pulls

Any of you guys do lawn tractor pulling? I am going to my first pull in 4 weeks. Should be fun. The amazing thing is their tech inspection, or lack thereof... I have a "10" hp Briggs with a different crank and rod, a little machine work, that is now 18 hp. How fun is that? And I built the whole tractor for less than $1,500 including paint and decals and stuff.

By the way... she's a Bolens. The tractor was free, ok? I am STILL a FORD guy and if I could find a dag burned Ford lawn tractor that wasn't worth a million bucks I'd have one!

I know a guy who put a motorcycle engine in his '87 Craftsman. Thing will go in excess of 70mph. Very fun and constructive hobby.
