This was a history making event for the LSMRA / USLMRA
Below are photos taken on March 21st 2009 at the Texas Motorplex in Ennis Texas where Pink's All Out filmed another episode for the show. The LSMRA displayed a large 40' X 30' booth with nine race mowers and one 5 engine, 10 cylinder John Deere named the "Mow Longer" The Pink's All Out camera crew came by and filmed interviews with what they refered to as "The Dream Team" consisting of Dave Hill, John Nelson, Mike Cupps, Eddy Akin, Carroll Cambell & Scott Bittle. These lucky six guys made history that day. It was the first time ever that lawn mower drag racing was filmed on Pink's and the first time that the Texas Moroplex had lawn mowers on their track.
