Honda worked with Team Dynamics, its title-winning British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) partner, to create the "Mean Mower," a lawn tractor that goes from 0-60 mph (96 km/h) in 4 seconds and reaches a top speed of 209 km/h!

At the same time, it produces 130db of sound effects -- louder than a jackhammer and equal to an airliner taking off.

Based on the Honda HF2620, the Mean Mower received an all-new, custom-made chromoly chassis, a 1.0L engine derived from the Honda VTR Firestorm, a custom suspension, and ATV wheels.

Despite its blistering speeds, this machine can only cut grass at around 25 km/h. Still, that's more than double the maximum speed of the HF2620.
