HOW DOES THIS WORK?

***NEW 2025 Rules and Regulations posted!***


In a nutshell, SSILMRA has two main classes of racing lawn mowers. 

1. Fully stock - anyone can race! These are commercially sold lawn mowers that literally just rolled off the lot with the cutting deck removed. 

2. Modified Classes - Lots of options here to build your own racing mower, but PLEASE read the Rules and Regulations first. 

3. No Rules - Build whatever you want!  Time trials only.
