This week I tried converting a lawnmower for racing. It didn't quite go to plan. Building a racing lawnmower is, in theory, quite straight forward. However, in practice preparing an old rusty lawnmower for a 40 lap race has it's pitfalls.

    "My first job is taking all the unessecary parts off the mower" Completley removes front wheels
  • @joe8565
    It’s been a long time since you tried the backflip, time to come back to it mate
  • Do you think he realised that the spring under his seat are safteys and when pressure is not on them (going over pumps) the mower shuts off
  • "She turned over just fine" room fills with smoke
  • @huyisjan
    Mark my words, months or even years later this will hit everyone's recommendations
  • Hey Mike, I’m not sure if it is the same with your model but, often ride on lawn mowers have a switch under the seat which cuts the engine when you stand up. That may explain why the motor keeps cutting when you go over the bumps😁.
  • @_alar_
    Bet he didnt even remove the saftey switch. When you put preassure on the seat the switch tells the engine its good to go ( simply put ).
  • @MrSonnyfy
    Did you guys bypass the emergency switch in the seat? There's a switch where if you stand up while it's running it shuts off
  • @blumkeet
    The feeling when you don't hear the 'Day One Hour Zero' phraze...
  • @clmods787
    Me: this is soooo fast Colin furze: hold my beer
  • "Some mowers are breaking 50 mph." The guy who LS swapped a lawn mower: hold my beer
  • @RafidW9
    Looks more exciting than the current state of f1
  • @lwcky8929
    Colin Furze wants to know your location
  • What mans want: Hot girls What mans actually wants: a lawnmower that can drive up to 50 miles an hour
  • @locke_ytb
    At 8:00 I was like "Aw cmon" 5 seconds later "Okay, maybe that's not too bad!"
  • He should totally have collabed with Colin Furze for this!
  • Your challenges are just getting better and better! Keep up the great work Mike!
  • @atlas6533
    Person paying me to mow: So about how long does it take? Me: uhhhh probably about 2 minutes Person: You mean 2 hours? Me: No. I said 2 minutes, I meant 2 minutes.
  • Hey Mike, You should try to learn the speed bag! You can watch boxers hitting the speed bag and create an end goal that you wanna be at. If it’s continuous over hand for like 30 seconds with no mistakes or whatever you come up with. I wanna see your progression!
