Racing lawnmowers anyway. Yep I have an old Dynamark lawn tractor that I modified. It has a gas, clutch, and a brake pedal. It will pick the front wheels up and top speed is 43mph Head Bang

Yeah. Its kinda scary that those 12 little anchers are pretty much all thats keepin that bitch upright. The first time I raised it I'm lookin at the top of the lift and a reference point on the ceiling to see if it moves any Neutral But I'm comfortable with it now. I was runnin it up and down all day today. Smile You do have to be careful raising cars with the hood up cause I have a low ceilig. No biggie most of the time. But if I raise that Vette with the hood up That will be a serious f..k up. God I hope I dont do that shit! Rolling Eyes

Cool, We're going to pick it up today and do a test drive. If it acts weird we may drop it by after hours if that's ok.

I was out driving around yesterday and went by your shop,did not see anything going on,or a sign .
But there are only so many options behind the city hall.
Red Brick or New cender block?
Just was going to stop and say Hello!
I will anotherday.
