Bid to break world land speed record for a lawnmower unveiled

A bid to break the world land speed record for a lawnmower was unveiled.

Don Wales, the nephew of multiple world speed record holder Donald Campbell, will be at the controls of the attempt which aims to propel the grasscutter at speeds in excess of 100mph.

Project Runningblade aims to smash the record set by Bob Cleveland from the United States of 80.792mph at Bonneville Salt Flats on July 4, 2006.
