This shot is of Chuck Miller at the Pickaway County Fair after winning 2nd Place in Class 3. This lawnmower is appropriately named "BOOGIE WOOGIE" and powered by a 13-horsepower Honda Harmony engine. This mower has a Ingersol frame, but we're not sure of the year.

Chuck has been racing go-carts for many years, and lawnmowers for 7 years. Chuck also has been competing in tractor pulls for years. I guess he'll take competition anywhere he can find it!!! Chuck owns his own lawnmower shop (MILLER'S LAWN & POWER EQUIPMENT). Chuck's faithful pit crew member is his wife, Debbie. They are both Charter Members of the OHIO MOWER RACERS.

Chuck recently won a few first place trophies in Illinois with the United States Lawn Mower Racing Association -- he is the Factory Experimental Champion for the Central Illinois Regional, Land of Lincoln Regional, and the Firecracker Regional. Chuck also has won a 1st Place trophy for Class 3 at the Ohio Mower Racers Sanctioned race at Columbus Motor Speedway. Chuck recently placed second at the Pickaway County Fair in Class 3 (OMR Sanctioned).

Chuck recently did an exhibition race at Charlotte Motor Speedway in mid July, 1998. There were about 20 mowers there racing at 60 MPH on BLACK TOP!! This was aired on RPM Tonite on ESPN shortly thereafter. Chuck won another race!

Here's a shot of Chuck at the STA-BIL Motor City Regional at the Wayne County Fair in Belleville, Michigan. Chuck lapped the field with BOOGIE WOOGIE at that regional.

Chuck recently won first place at the STA-BIL Buckeye Regional at the Marysville All Ohio Balloon Festival on August 22nd, 1998. Chuck had a bad start (very unusual) and came back from last place to the top three. Then he spun out and had to fight his way back to the top -- and he did just that!

Chuck is also a Charter Member with the US Lawn Mower Racing Association and has been racing with them since their first National event in 1992. Chuck started out in the B Prepared Class (8.5-18.5 HP) but now runs in the Factory Experimental Class (modified). Rumors have it that he will be racing in B Prepared Class again soon, too. He has won a quite a few National and Regional Championship titles, and currently is the STA-BIL 1997, 1998, and 1999 Factory Experimental National Champion!!

That's right folks! Chuck won the 1998 Factory Experimental Championship again!

Here's a shot of Chuck when he got "sandwiched" between Kevin Penne of Illinois, and a hay bail! Even after his hay bath, Chuck took the lead without ANY PROBLEM!

Chuck went to compete at three Regionals in Mendota, Illinois, on June 6, 1999, and during the first regional race, Chuck experienced severe engine problems (spilling all of his oil) and couldn't compete in the remaining two.

Chuck recently started racing in an additional class division, his original racing class, the B Prepared class. His new mower is a Honda garden tractor. Pictures will be here soon for this mower.

Chuck was one of 8 chosen to represent the American BP Class Team at the USLMRA Rider's Cup against the Brits on July 1-2, 2000.

The United States Lawn Mower Racing Association considers Chuck Miller the "Most Winningest Lawn Mower Racer in USLMRA history...." Chuck is pretty amazing and you'd have to see it to believe it. I've NEVER seen anyone come from starting in 22nd place and end up winning the race. If you blink, you'll miss him pass 5 people or so and that's no lie or exaggeration!

With our shock and bewilderment, Chuck sold his "Boogie Woogie" mower in the 2002 season. I guess when you've beat anybody and everybody year after year after year, he was looking for some new challenges with his BP Mower. No matter who bought it, I'm sure that NOBODY will be as an amazing driver as Chuck was with the "Boogie Woogie" mower. He's pretty spectacular with his BP machine, too, so his fans surely won't be let down. Just to prove my point, Chuck is the 2002 National Champion in BP Class for 2002! Not only that, but he also won 1st Place in the Challenge of Champions in the BP Class! Kickin' grass and taking names! Chuck finished in 11th Place overall for Point Standings in the Factory Experimental Class and 2nd Place overall for Point Standings in the BP Class. Since Chuck travels far and wide to so many races, we will just post the 2002 results below.

With no surprise at all, it was reported to the webmadster that Chuck bought his FX mower, "Boogie Woogie," back again in late 2003. I guess he missed his creation.....I'm sure no one could drive it the same way as Chuck. Chuck has traveled afar in 2003, and you can see his results below. One thing that needs highlighted is that Chuck is once again the National Champion for the BP Class for 2003!! You've made us proud once again! Chuck also finished in the BP Class in 2nd Place for points! Congratulations Chuck!

Lets see how Chuck has done so far.....(Since 1992)
