The pit bike race has finally made it back!!!! I will be running the race again this year, as well as announcing. We are going to change it up for time reasons. As much as I enjoyed watching the bikes(with peddles) We are only going to allow motorized vehicles in this year. Golf carts, 4-wheelers, mini bikes, go-carts, etc. RULES: Helmets must be worn 16yrs of age race will be 1/8th mile one time trail (two depending on car count) The race will be a 10 dollar entry, no buy backs. I will put up a 10 dollar prize for best reaction time in first round. Please feel free to put up a prize of your own. Just find me. Mike James last year paid for best winning reaction. This race is meant to be something different and fun. Everyone enjoyed last year. Ryan Montford's girlfriend won and Craig Amerine was runner-up. I bet you never thought running your pit vehicle could win you good money. I will pay out 4 places if it is over 15 people. Last year we had 24 lets make it bigger and better. Invite friends and family to come and enjoy this strange and fun class. Call me for questions or message Jill. Ryan Curran (620) 755-1053

Yes. That would be fine by me and you should invite anyother who you think would be interested. I believe last year it paid $150 or so to the winner. Not bad for a day of fun. Let me know if you have any other questions.

This race will be ran through the day. One time trail at the end of all time trials. Then we will begin first round either directly after then completion of first round or second, depending on car count. mowerracer we would be glad to have you and whom ever else you could get to come out. This is a once a year thing that I try and put on and I believe it to be a great time. The time trial will be ran around 5:00. Then first round starting around 7.

I'm not trying to stir trouble....But..... A mower used for RACING would not be fair to run against PIT vehicles would it? ? I am assuming that the mower is hopped up(tuned up) to race, Not just a pit assistance type vehicle. Am I right

Yes its a racing mower, look at the link above, The first post said Golf carts, 4-wheelers, mini bikes, go-carts, etc. Thats why I asked. My grandpa will be there racing that's why I was going to come. It's fast but there is no way I could beat a four wheeler. I'm also assuming there will be dial in's so it wouldn't matter?? Let me know asap please, thanks

Yes mowers do follow under etc. Motorized vehicles. As far as a mower not being used as pit assistance......well I have been to some out there race tracks before. lol But like I said, if any of you have friends or family that have mini bikes, 4-wheelers or they just don't want to go out and play golf. Invite them out for a fun time. I will be willing to help people who don't know what to dial and so on. I do this for fun for the racers, and the spectators. It is something out of the ordinary of every weekend. Thanks everyone, any further ?'s please call or text me and I will address them that way. Hope to have a great turn out this weekend.

Dam! That mower was awesome!! But I thought he was talking about something a lot more "hopped up". I liked this one!!! To bad I got a big fat red light, and didn't get to run more!! It was fun, lets do it again!!
