Horse_PowerI have already made that mission 2 times and the last time I made it , I won by 4 seconds without cutting trough the grass.
I think there is general consensus that Mission 34 is much easier on the PAL version of the game.
The margin for error on the NTSC North American version is quite small -- even with grasscutting, it still takes a heck of a lot of practice and/or talent to pass the mission.
