Well, the Corvette may be on the way out, the best class I can come up with is LMP - LawnMowerPrepared.

Honda has fitted the Mean Mower 2 with a 1.0-liter engine straight out of its Honda CBR1000R superbike. The engine produces a whopping 190 hp at 13,000 rpm, which should be capable of sub-3.0 second 0-60 mph times. The new grass-cutting monster produces almost twice the power of its predecessor, which only managed to churn out around 107 hp. The CBR1000R superbike engine is mated to a six-speed quick shifter that is equipped with automatic rev-matching technology.

Honda boasted that it will be able to cut grass at speeds of over 100 mph, partly thanks to its new carbon-fiber blades and newly designed grass catcher.

Is that a fire extinguisher on the RR fender? Seems like a rollcage and harness would be a more logical choice of safety equipment, I'm guessing the fire would be several hundred feet away at the speed it all went wrong.
