Welcome to Louisville, Kentucky. Today I am here in the Bluegrass State to attempt a Guinness World Records with my friends from Relco. Mike Garvey's in the house as well. Larry Cornell Mac is here. Haley Ryman and many others. I'm gonna try to get all of them on the podcast. Chris Kaiser, right around the corner. We're gonna see if we can get him on the show as well, and many others. So it's gonna be like an epic podcast. Today, because I'm going to try to include as many of my friends as we can as we are here. And what we're doing here today is Relco is attempting to set a Guinness World Records for the fastest time to mow an area of an American football field using a ride-on mower. So this attempt's going to take place under official adjudication.
We're here at Turf Mutt Great Lawn, Wolville, Kentucky. And uh there's a uh Adjudicator, I think he's from New York City. He's all fancy dressed up in a vest. And he he uh you know, is representing the Guinness World Records here. Um, as we demonstrate How powerful this engine is um under the load of this Kentucky bluegrass. It looks like it's six inches or more and it's wet and it's tall. And we're gonna see how this engine does here. So again, we have in attendance Chris Kaiser and many, many others. So I'm gonna start the show off with an interview with Chris Kaiser, and then I'll see who else I can snag. And uh then we'll go out here and attempt a Guinness World Records. Folks, this is exciting. Glad to have you with me.
With us. Without further ado, let's kick the show off with the president of the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute, Chris Kaiser.
Well, nice to see you. Thanks for coming up. Yeah, we are in your neck of the woods today in Louisville. You are home. So uh equip home, my home, turf mud's home.
Why did Paul Jamison travel to Louisville, Kentucky for a Guinness World Record attempt?
Yeah. And hopefully the home of a new Guinness record. Absolutely. It's the um Guinness World Records here. And what what uh is our venue here? We are on the Turf Mud Great Lawn. Um the Turf Mud Foundation sponsors this. We provide monies for the Great Lawn to the waterfront Park Group. I'm on the waterfront park board of directors. Uh the this is a gathering spot for the city. So lots of uh derby stuff, thunder, the glow-up balloon race all happens here on the uh community park. But today, Relco is gonna set a Guinness record in mowing this. It is sprayed out as a football field and it's regulation size, and we're gonna set a speed record with their new engine product.
Always good catching up with Chris Kaiser. We'll have the full interview with Chris uh coming up on a future episode of the Green Street Podcast. But I want to keep things moving here and uh get Mike Garvey on the program, who is in attendance at this Guinness World Records attempt. So without further ado, here's my friend Mike Garvey Today.
