    It's a riding mower, not a race car. You want to get it going 10 to 15 mph faster than it already does? That is unsafe and I'm not sure it could even be done.

    It is what it is , like odinn7 said it's a ride on mower,
    To make it go faster you would have to replace the rear end with one that has higher gears.
