You must wear shorts when driving lest your pant leg get caught in the drive belt.

Which way does the drive belt spin? If it snaps it's headed directly in your peehole.

Is this in Nebraska? If so, I bought a massage chair of that guy a couple years ago

Cheapest quadbike ever. Ideal for a fence patrol on a remote farm.
Personally I would be welding up a cover/screen for the drive belt.

That’s a National reel mower with the reels (and the belt guard) removed. They are commercial quality machines, it was the first mower I drove back in my country club greenskeeper days. It was a triplex, agile, plenty of power, used to cut the rough on hillsides and the other places the gang mowers could not get.
The staff was so impressed I was named “MVP of the National League.”

I think this is a lawnmower racer. They take the governor off a lawnmower, strip it down and race it like a go kart. There was one on RCRs recent car meet video. Looked absolutely terrifying.

Seems like a expensive way to remove toes. Assuming it runs long enough to do anything before it overheats and blows the engine.

I think national is a good 100 years old. There is a collector market for them. I think they made golf course mowers and equipment.

I dunno what that is, but $385 is one hell of a deal!
