Its built for WOO, but with a tire change I believe it to be with in soltra rules. I plan to attend a couple races this year with the family, possibly more if I can get it with in tech rules. Its still not 100% finished as I am in need of a gel type battery or one that can lay on its side for the location I have for it. Its a Davison Comando, with a peerless 600 mated to a kawi fc540v single.

If you have a home healthcare place near you. Like shoppers where they service wheelchairs, they will usually have gell batteries that arent good for chairs but work fine to start a mower engine. Theyre heavy tho

Now with the ground clearence rule of 4" .. is that the frame or the lowest part ?? trying to possilby make this thing club legal with a tire swap. the frame is currently 4" in the front and 7 in the back as the transaxle is under the frame. but if you count the bottom of the transaxle or bottom of the grill they are 3"... just curious.

Yes it is 4 inches to bottom of frame other things can be below it such as front axle tube and front hood mounts as i passed tech this year and my axle sits lower than my frame and so is my front hood mounts also mower looks real nice
