change the pulley on the hydro. lawn mowers aren't designed to go fast lol. but that'll definitely give you a boost...
 
Gearing , Fuel , Intake . start with those . what would be killer , is a riding lawnmower bodykit for your blaster , now that would fool them , custom make a mowerdeck , would be a total sleeper
 
remove mower deck. find a realllllllyy large pulley for the engine shaft for the transaxle pulley find a really small one make sure u have the keeper keys in there or ur f'ed change belts there is a piece of metal on the carburetor 90 degree angle bend it straight then u can haul ass! upgrade the throttle with an old bike cable and fab maybe a foot lever of some sort... find a govenor thats some where in the carb and remove that piece of crap connected to throttle feed. bigger back wheels will make er run make the front tires a little bit smaller than normal. ohh remove the stock muffler throw some stack or drag style pipes on it

i've had numerous lawn tractors that i used to romp on or use in pulling tractor competions. there are a few more tricks but i will not give them away they are considered unsafe but have worked for me.... i wouldn't try to wheelie that much i've snapped a few transaxles and a good amount of the engines went up in flames....

damn you know a lot about lawn mowers.......lol
 
On our pulling tractor its chain drive so you just switch up the sprockets but im sure yous is belt so bigger/ smaller pulley like everyone else is saying. You could also get motor work done. Like dirtyblaster said there are a bunch more tricks but can't let them get out.
 
lol im puting a stack on my ingersol this spring i use it to screw around and plow like 3inches in our driveway sometimes but mostly do our walkway so i dont have to shovel its hydrostatic but i can put it in high and do like 12mph.. lol
 
lol thanks everyone! i already took off my mowing deck because i have a plowl for the snow... this seems to difficult to me but it could be done!! I just have to get more familiar with the engine.... and dirtyblaster! My god do u race lawn mowers?!?!
