That's a riot, even if it can only do donuts.

Can I have mine with a roll cage? You know, just in case.

What's the speed and temperature rating on lawn mower tires?

I foresee many trips to the hospital with that thing.
I've got an engine off an actual rotary lawn mower on the shelf. Not quite that powerful though since the rotor is only about four inches on a side.

Here's another video of a rotary-powered lawnmower racing on a small dirt track:

Description says it's a single-rotor 13B. Looks like a handful in the corners!

That looked a lot like the 750HP Camaro Vs a Civic is probably going to look.

A displacement based loophole in a lawnmower racing rulebook is about to be closed.

I like it.. but it needs a mowing deck.. would be perfect for the weeds that I call a lawn
I do find the gap between the "floor boards" and that spinning rear wheel scary. One slip of the foot and it is going to suck your foot, leg, and as much of your body as it can down that little gap
