The kicker is that the mower that beat him was not even self propelled.

Ever heard of a Dixie Chopper, a lawnmower that'll do 45 mph
it's 1.4 L3 piston engine

My dad has one, it'll beat the 8 off the line

Yeah, but can you get a snazzy body kit for the mower? Big-*** wing (tm)? Lowering springs?

I bet the mowing deck was down. he was getting propulsion from the grass flying out.

you shoud strap a weedeater to the back and challenge him again.

The key is the mower probably had a wing, some decals, and the turbonator. You were no match.

Was it this lawn mower?



Which you'll notice, if you focus not on Jim-Bob there and instead on the underside and backside of the machine, is powered by a small jet engine.

So would that be a forced expulsion system instead of a forced induction?
