cheers can't wait to see who qualifies ! Been keeping my fingers crossed on mine, most people who look at it have their doubts of its mowerishness but I really tried to keep the mower style going as much as I could!!

I came up with an idea about build off classes the other day.  The group is here small but to keep the build off contest fresh each year perhaps a rule could be changed, or different class randomly selected for the competitors to compete in.  Like one year it could be who could build the best 5 or 6 wheeled machine, maybe one year who could build the best workhorse rig, one year who could build the best rally machine with a maximum height rule, and another year the engine rule is totally open but you have to use a lawn or garden tractor transmission and %50 of a tractor frame minimum.

@Crazy_Carl there are a lot of great ideas there, the nice thing about the build off how it currently is set up, is anyone and everyone can enter as long as it's a tractor build and you can build anything you want as long as it's in the guidelines. my concern with having a dedicated style build every year like a work horse tractor, racer, rally tractor, ex. Is that. For example not everyone wants a racer, not everyone is looking for a work horse and all that so if you not interested in a work tractor you're not gonna enter because why would you waste your time and money on a tractor you don't want? Then you have a handful of people that decided they were going to build a work tractor that year and then you only get 5 people who enter the build off and only two of them urns up finishing? Just my .02

That is a cool idea if people are going at the same type of machine, still people probably wont build something they don't like or want just for the hell of it. Id be priced out of a 6 wheel build off the bat.

I will do it again though, I have a few projects sitting that I have ideas for....

We are close.  Doug is half way through the finishers.  He really takes the builds seriously.
