Awesome. Certainly give new meaning to cutting a line through a corner.

i think you will find it has to comply with 'lawn mower regs' probably have to run a industrial motor as such and retain the standard drive arrangement. i am just guessing this otherwise we would have already seen a busa powered 200mph lawnmower

I heard that to comply with the rules it must still be able to cut grass

Cutting the grass is the easy bit keeping something that blunt in a straight line at 200mph might be tricky though lol

You're right Timbo (as rare as that might be), he had to actually mow a section of grass at the venue before he could do his runs, as per the rules.
