Thanks Dan D'arcy and company of Allpower Sales in Granby Ma. for the great deal on my new John Deere mower!
Allpower saved me thousands of dollars on the price and even delivered it free!
I now have the fastest mower in Worcester county!
..which gives me more time to watch racing on TV and fix my broken toys...

^ Uh oh..rules..
"1.Fuel must be pump gasoline. The only additive allowed is STA-BIL Fuel Stabilizer." Damn...mine's a diesel..
"2.Mower brakes must be in good condition, operating on at least 2 wheels." Double damn..I have no brakes...
They even have a Prepared class...

My new John Deere 2530 was also an acquisition from Dan Darcy. It has 14" wide rear tires, uses pump gas, has seat belts, rollover bar, and has brakes! At about 1900 lbs with mower deck and bucket loader (will leave the 60" snowblower off) and around 26 hp, I guess it puts me in SSC. Watch out Miatas!
