Go fast?
Pretty much any 25HP or more tractor can run that baler at its maximum PTO speed at its maximum output. I seriously doubt you are running out power due to the amount of hay you are shoving through it. If its anything like my New Holland baler (276) you run out of shear pin strength before the tractor pulls down. The old Wisconsin motors on the New Holland balers were 15 to 18 hp if I recall correctly - and they didn't have the torque that a full sized inline 4 cylinder (or larger) tractor engine had.
You could pull you baler with 150Hp tractor an you won't go much faster than with a 25Hp tractor. You could bump up your PTO speed (hook it up to the 1000 PTO and throttle it back) and run it faster than rated speed but that would probably only work for a very short time. I recall someone on here saying they had tried that and then "forgot" and ran the baler at the full 1000 PTO speed - when it tripped to tie the bale the baler jumped up off the ground.

Today's Featured Article - It Can't Be Done! - A Tractor Story - by Neil Campbell. I'll never forget the time back when I was a boy baling hay on our Farm in Big Rapid, Michigan. The most memorable event that took place was a trip up the steepest incline on the farm pulling an old New-Idea baler with a pony-motor for power and a haywagon. I had just talked my Dad into buying an old John Deere B with 6-speeds ahead and I was real proud of it, except it was a little smaller than the Case tractor that we normally
