No seriously, get a Ferrari kit car. It's fibreglass so you can cut and mould to reshape aerodynamic problem areas. Put a little diesel inthe back. Kubota has nice little 2&3 cylinder diesels, 10-25 hp eforethey get really big and heavy The 10 hp would run for hours cutting grass on a gallon, very efficient you could find a garden tractor with manual gearbox but they are non syncromesh trannies mate it to a firefly transmission it wil run nice with some tall skinny tires
