A while ago we reported on Bobby Cleveland & his quest to have the fastest lawnmower in the world. He was on his way to England to check out a competitor’s attempts to break his then world record, one he set in July 2006.

His attempts at Bonneville Salt Flats proved fruitful & Cleveland set the new record at 88.94 mph on the first day. But with Cleveland being who he is, a 1 mile per hour difference between him & the other guys just wasn’t enough & so he set to fine-tuning his mower that night, coming out the next morning in full glory with an amazing  96.529 mph!
