Lawn Mower Racing

Don't know if this has been put on here before but here it is.

 

Racing ride on lawn mowers. This pic is from the 12hr endurance race held at brinsbury in west sussex last saterday night.

 

These slighlty modified machines are capable of speeds up to 50 mph and are not the comfiest things to belt round on!!

 

Teams of three drivers and pit crew compete for 12 hours for this race from 8pm to 8 am.

 

Shorter races are also held throughout the season.
