From another article:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/motoring/news/7760072/L awnmower-speed-record-shattered.html

"Driven by Don Wales, nephew of speed legend Donald Campbell and grandson of Sir Malcolm Campbell, the Kawasaki-powered Countax ride-on machine hit 86.069mph, adding almost six mph to a previous top speed set in America, four years earlier."

"In line with regulations, Don Wales cut grass outside Pendine's Museum of Speed with the "Project Runningblade" machine, before taking to the Sands for his victorious run."
