i was watching motor mayhem on the discovery channel the other night and they were souping up lawn tractors and racing them. they made them go 50+ mph. i was just wondering if anyone on here has done that. cause we have a 1989 cub cadet just sitting there and i got the itch to make it bad @$$

thats awesome. they said on tv that one very cheap thing you can do to make a lawn tractor faster is take the governor off and replace all pullys with bigger ones.

Bill X R Some people say that about ATV enthusiasts.
I watched the lawn tractors the other nite to.There was more beer drinking than tractor racing. A few years back TNN showed a few races on Friday nites after Monster Jam. My Yamaha tractor wouldnt do to good considering it has a hydrostatic transmission.
