MOWER RACING TIPS

BRAKING MODIFICATIONS


 
1.
 MAKE SURE YOUR BRAKE PADS ARE GOOD!
    YOU CANNOT STOP WITHOUT GOOD PADS.
    MOST PADS ARE EASILY REPLACEABLE.
 
 
2. MOWERS THAT HAVE THE TRANSMISSION SEPARATE FROM THE AXLE ARE EASIER TO MAKE MODIFICATIONS ON.
 
 
3. CHEAPER (TAKES MORE INGENUITY?):
    SOME (OLDER?) MOWERS HAVE A BRAKE THAT USES THE 
    AXLE DRIVE SPROCKET AS A DISC. THIS CAN BE MOUNTED
    UNDER ABOUT ANY MOWER WITH A CHAIN DRIVE.
 
  
4. TAKES SOME INGENUITY, MORE EXPENSIVE:
    MOTORCYCLE DISC ASSEMBLY CAN BE MOUNTED TO
    WORK FAIRLY WELL, BEST TO USE FOOT BRAKE RATHER
    THAN HAND BRAKE.
 
 
5. MOST EXPENSIVE, BEST BRAKING POWER: 
    CART DISC ASSEMBLIES PROVIDE MUCH BETTER BRAKING
    POWER.
