I am going to be racing in the MidWest LawnMower Racing Association   Here in Kansas.
And I  will fall into what  they call "Single Modified Class"
Right now it  has  a Briggs  18.5  Motor running through a  Peerless Trans with a  custom 19 tooth sprocket  hooked up to a 1 1/4" Axle   GoldSpeed Sprockets...MCP Braking  Oh  I  could go on and on

 It  is  raked out pretty good     but it will   be on circle or oval tracks.....I  was  really worried about it's handling during  the  build, but I  was  surprised how  well  it  is  doing  in  the  corners....and  Chris I  do  have it's progress  pictured......but  my photo  skills  make  it  look worse  than  it  was  during  the  build     :woo:

I would like to hear the "Reasoning" behind that as well...

Is that the "standard" for your organization..?? or were you looking for a specific gain in some area..??

I mean.."looks" OK...just wondering the reasoning behind the extra work..

Ohhh Ohhh and one of those 6" chrome chain steering wheels...

 But we're getting off the topic here..

I was asking from an engineering and setup  point of view...

What was the reasoning to stretch and what were the expected gains..??
