12 Hour Lawn Mower Racing (pic heavy)
Discussion
Rather than watch X-Factor or similar rubbish I ventured out into a field and joined 1000's of others watching the racing.
These guys start with a standard ride on lawn mower and then tweack slightly and race. 12 hours from dusk through to dawn (I was in bed when they finished though
)
Already posted some image in the motorsport section, but thought the togs here might appreciate the images.
C&C most welcome

No problem with flash photography in pitch darkness, although thinking about it now a double flash might have got more movement in the wheels etc?

Looks like a fun affordable motorsport with racers of similar mindsets - to have a good time and all get on!
