As far as engine mods like air cleaner, gasoline, timing, etc., short of adjusting the governor, that is the bottom line.

Bigger rear tires (gearing) would be the safest, easiest change short of adjusting the governor.

If you're running around any sharp corners, I just wonder if leaving the deck on the tractor wouldn't be a good idea to lower the CG? If you're on dirt, wouldn't skinny front tires dig in a little better in the turns vs using wide ribbed tires?

Just guessing here. I never raced a lawnmower.
