That's what happens when you get bored and need something to race in the winter.

I can see the fun. And, most importantly, why not? Just like us over here, I'm sure there are autos we have that aren't that great to us but are fun for them and vice versa.

As quirky as they are over there, this doesn't suprise me.

People will race ANYTHING. It doesn't matter what's available in their country.

 

SOMEWHERE two guys were sitting around, probably drinking beers, when one guy probably mentioned that his lawnmower was faster than the other guy's. And Lawnmower racing was born.

 

Yes, even in the UK: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BeGJRw4tBM

 

"Fuck that shit.. I bet my lawnmower could beat yours in the 1/4."

"My bass boat is the fastest thing on the lake."

"Screw that, my BATHTUB could beat your boat."

 

If it moves, someone will race it.

Thats what I was thinking, I think its just a man thing. I drove by union county fair grounds one time and seen lawn mowers racing around hay bails.

That's cool as hell. I would do it, that looks like a hoot.

That's what I'm saying. If it moves, I've tried to race it. Whether it was a leaf with another leaf stuck in it like a sail racing my friends leaf boat on the side of the road in the water runoff or racing hot wheels down a slope, racing atv's, animals, cars (even the shitty ones), jet skis, the list goes on and on. Hell, I even race my gf to see who can get their 'comfys' on and back to the couch first.

 

Shit, I'm racing one of you who's typing right now. I'm winning, btw.
