Looking to purchase new mower, first zero turn. I think I have narrowed down to either a Fastrak SD 54" or a new last years model Mini Z 52". I can get the Mini Z for a few hundred dollars less than the Fastrak. I haven't been able to find all the specs on the Mini Z so am looking for a little advise from those that know more than I. I mow about 1 acre and might do about the same for another person but that would be it. It is fairly flat with decent number of things to mow around and pretty rough in places. Do to the fact of it being rough I think I need something with bigger tires than the original fastrak but budget wise would like to be as close as possible in price. Is the Mini Z a better machine than the Fastrak Super Duty?

The Mini Z 52" is a full commercial unit and is a step above the FasTrak or FasTrak SD series, its well worth the price especially if your getting a great deal on it.

The Mini Z has seperate pumps and wheel motors, plus bigger tires. But, the Super Duty will likely have more HP. If they are the same price or with in $500, get the Mini Z.

That is what I thought thanks for the confirmation. Purchased the Mini Z, should pick it up within the next few days depending on weather. Got it for about 400 less than could have bought Super Duty and since it is last years model with a couple of hours on it dealer is performing 5 hour service before pick up. Look forward to mowing.
