35 HP engines spin lawn mower blades REALLY fast while still providing enough power to pop wheelies.

That will be exceedingly difficult since zero turns don't have brakes. Found out about the wheelies by accident and try to avoid it since it tends to waste the bearings in the casters pretty quickly.

Wheelies are usually a good sign of somebody that just started using a zero turn.

Unless the guy said "watch this!"

Sometimes keeping all 4 on the ground gets monotonous.

And when on the new mower with big engine and hydros it is perfectly normal to weave side to side when behind the other (slower) mower going down a driveway while yelling NASCAR! Gotta keep the tires warm.
