Non-Affiliated Races / Aussies at the AAMC
« on: January 02, 2014, 10:12:49 am »
I been on the phone with one of my AUSTRALIAN friends this morning. 5 to 10 of them are planning on attending the ALL American this coming year. SO this is gonna be a truly international event from across the pond!!! The BIG POND LOL. They are gonna see about bringing their mowers but if they cannot Here is what I am wanting to do. I would like to have mowers for these guys to race!!! What I am looking for is teams that are willing to bring a Super Mod style chassis machine...... stock motor (ungoverned Must have Billet wheel) as this is what they are used to running. Kinda like exchange students but in this case exchange racers. You adopt one for the weekend tutor them help them work with them so they have a truly awesome weekend full of fun and racing. 2 drivers have run full blown Super mods for a season I will cover one of these guys. Whats your thoughts on this. I am planning on having a film crew at the event to document the entire weekend. Thoughts any takers. Email me at gdherrinatbellsouth.net for details if your wanting to provide a machine for this possibly once in a lifetime event.

USLMRA Races / US 2014 Rules
« on: November 05, 2013, 08:43:35 am »
I have to applaud the USLMRA for the direction taken in prepared classes to ensure the safety and well being of the drivers. allowing the seats lower and 40" sure will help in all these roll overs. Will sure help make them more stable. I know not all will like it but if we cant slow em down this is the next best thing. NOW if ALL Sanction body's and clubs will adapt the sport will make some great strides. THANK YOU US for taking the initiative.

Admin Announcements / Dont ask for advice then disagree
« on: September 24, 2013, 06:20:58 am »
New guys and rookies and whom ever it pertains too. DO NOT come on this forum then ask the Veterans their advice and then turn around and disregard it or argue the point that its not what your wanting to do or I wanna do it cheaper etc etc. you get my point. Want to get locked down or ask to move on this is the best way to go about it. We give advice based on safety and the best and proper way of building a race mower capable of racing anywhere in the country. IF your not looking to do that then this forum is not for you. I cannot say it any clearer or nicer than that!!!

Post Your Video / New SUPER MODIFIED twin debut
« on: August 25, 2013, 09:54:23 pm »
Two weeks and done and yes powered by a itty bitty Indian. this is the heat race didnt even get to test it till we got to the track. Couple adjustments after practice and then put the rear chain back on after this heat race and that was all. Finished second in the feature not bad for the first time on the ground. At the end of the heat coming to the checkered flag hain popped off, watch how masterfully Jake my son slips between me and the hay on the outside and never checks up on my old but his now new twin. and yes its powered by an Indian also. ALL in All we have 3 Super Mod twins in BTMRA powered by them itty bitty Indians.

BIG Changes are coming to ALL AMERICAN for 2013. FOR the first time it will truly be an independent event as I have always wanted. As it was always an event where ALL can come together it still remains so but now it’s truly independent and FULLY insured. With that said the all American will revert back to its original name, THE ALL AMERICAN MOWER CHAMPOIONSHIPS. While we will always remember Sam, its time to move on love and miss ya buddy. Over the years this event has continued to be the biggest single stand alone event in the country. The biggest diversity and variety of clubs and drivers from across the US and Canada gathered in one spot. IT takes allot to make this happen and we are already actively looking for event sponsors and even class sponsors. If you’re interested please give me a shout. The will be the best ever. Dates are as follows
