Here at the Janticjournal were finally starting a project with enough time to not have to rush. We're building 3 new Craftsman riding mowers for the 2020 season. Not sure of what classes we'll be running but they will be built to USLMRA rules with plans to be able to run at ARMA events too. This being the first video we're going over tires, wheels, rear axle stub and the general plan for the build. Not sure how many videos the series will be but we'll be going over the whole driveline, steering, rules, tips and anything else needed to build a racing mower.
