I recently was given a cadet 76 which I plan to put a 12.5 horse Briggs on which I am going to race so I really need to find out a what to expect from this mower. I need to find out if this mower is even worth my time

My personal opinion, it would hold up fine. I never really go into that but one of the tracks where we grass dragged sleds they also had a track for that. The mowers I seen were run of the mill box store junk, granted they were modded quite a bit and pretty fast. They were not built half as good as the Cadet 76.
Cole, it's been done before. Here's one that belonged to a former forum member.
My son and I built this one a couple years back, Bo#*s husky. We found that a 10 hp engine with governor removed worked the best. as it had better torque out of the turns. Everyone around here use lighter vertical engined tractors though still a mite top heavy they handle more like a go-cart This engine is stock other than the governor.
