It’s late summer and the heat wave killed the grass on your lawn, so what better to do than challenge Bob Cleveland’s record for the fastest lawn mower yet? Not sure your mower has what it’ll take to race down the salt flats at over 80 MPH? Wimp.
Utah’s KSL TV quotes Bob saying “we don’t need a whole lot of horsepower to go fast.” And when you look at the tiny wheels on that thing, well, you’ve gotta imagine you can do better.

I’ve never seen this before but right now Im in the process of fitting a 110hp 617cc twin l/c sled engine into my riding mower, really limited on space but cant wait till its finished!
We are going to shatter your bitch ass record you pussy.
fuck you thats slow were gunna blow u out of the water we got a cr 500 the does about 180 so your fucked your gunna lose your fast speed record
fuck you
If your using a bike or snowmobile engine, then its not a lawn mower. I think to break the record you would have to use a lawn mower engine (like something that actually came in a mower to mow your lawn with). Just my 2 cents worth.
I have raced mowers for three years and that is going 50mph on a 1/12th mile track with a 8hp briggs n’straton engine and a stock mower rear end. To get speed all you need to do is get the right pullies like a 7:3 ratio will push you to 55-60 no problem (thats a 7inch front to a 3inch rear). a 7:2 or 8:1 would probable get you to 80-90mph. for some real fun contact me a kennethg089@yahoo.com and leave me a message and i will try to answer any questions you have FREE OF CHARGE. this is to see how fast we can ge a MOSTLY STOCK LAWN MOWER. if you want to put stupid shit on it like a booster bottle or nos or a gocart tramsmission then it is up to you.
we had our old murry 95 mph with a old 18
hp briggs

if yall want to go faster change the pully ratio down under
what kind of rear end do u recomend using besides my stock one with a 6 speed, i want to go to a chain drive, what would be the best for a rear axle there, go cart or what
We are in the process of building a land speed record lawnmower, using a Cub Cadet transaxle and a V-twin Kohler. Right now on a 300′ pulling track and dragging a 10,000 lb weight transfer sled we are having ground speed (track speed) of 30 mph with a 50 mph gear, I think with a little regearing we should easily get there and we don’t use pulleys, that’s a pityful way to do it, we just use stock gearing now that’s a lawnmower to do it with stock gearing.
You must use a lawn mower engine if you want to set the Lawn Mower speed records. Of course you can build it super fast with a motorcycle or snowmobile engine, but that is not what it’s about. Getting to 80mph with a well build lawn mower is easy and you will see a TRUE lawn mower over that speed without a doubt..
