Rehlko Sets Sights on 'Cutting History' with World Record Attempt

Rehlko will supply the power behind Cutting History, an official attempt to set a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title for the fastest mowing of the area of an American football field (approximately 1.32 acres / 5,800 m²). 

The event will feature the Command PRO 41 hp engine in a real-world challenge designed to measure performance under demanding, high-load conditions. The attempt will take place on grass standing at a minimum height of six inches, creating a test that reflects genuine field performance rather than controlled laboratory conditions.

About the Command PRO 41 hp

The Command PRO 41 hp (999 cc), represents the most powerful engine in Rehlko’s lineup and serves as the technical foundation for the record attempt. Built for durability and consistent torque output, it features closed-loop EFI, advanced cooling, reinforced internals, and a service-first design aimed at maximizing uptime and reliability.

“Cutting a record is impressive. Doing it without the right power is impossible,” said Nino De Giglio, Marketing Communication Director at Rehlko. “With 41 hp of true, repeatable big-block performance and industry-grade durability, the Command PRO 999 cc makes the difference between attempting a record and actually setting one. This is not just a stunt, it’s a technical showcase.”

The engine delivers best-in-class big-block output with optimized torque delivery. Its closed-loop EFI system provides instant load compensation and improved fuel efficiency compared with carbureted systems. The enhanced cooling package and reinforced internal components allow extended operation under high load, while its service-first design—featuring easy access points, a Clean-Spin™ dripless oil change system, hydraulic lifters, and advanced intake protection—simplifies maintenance and reduces downtime.

The 36 hp and 38 hp variants of the Command PRO 999 cc engine are currently available, with the 41 hp version entering production in Fall 2026.

Rehlko invites professional landscapers and green-industry operators to apply to become the official driver for the Cutting History record attempt. Participants can register through the campaign landing page and upload a vertical video, up to 60 seconds long, introducing themselves, their background, and their target mowing time. Public voting will determine the top three entrants, from which a Rehlko jury will select the final Challenger.

Entries are open until December 15, 2025. The selected driver will gain international media exposure as the professional who “Cut History” with Rehlko.
