lawn mower racing

Competitive yard-equipment driving

Lawn mower racing is a motorsport where competitors race modified riding lawn mowers, typically with the cutting blades removed for safety.

Races take place on dirt tracks or grass courses, with classes based on engine modifications.

The sport combines genuine competition with a self-aware absurdity: The lawn mower racing circuit draws surprisingly devoted fans.
