Just about any gas cart can easily exceed the 20 mph speed limit for golf carts and electrics with relatively new batteries have plenty of range. There are many reasons to select one type of cart over another but speed and range are not issues.

Electric are faster because they are much more power efficient than gas. That may sound strange for a ~22mph race but I'll tell you I drove both and the electric are much more responsive. The newer EZ-GOs get about 40 miles a charge. That's plenty enough for 18 holes and a trip to the store off one charge.
