It is illegal to drive more than 20MPH....it shouldn't be illegal to fix a cart to go more than the legal speed limit.
Most of the golf carts in the Villages do not have license plates on them. As an unregistered motorized vehicle the maximum speed that it can go is 20 mph. That is potential maximum speed. If, you CHOOSE, to have a golf cart set up to do more than 20 mph you must put plates on it-register it-have INSURANCE and have a valid drivers license.
