The performance issue I would be most concerned with is braking. The brakes on those carts are designed for the lower speed gears found on fleet golf carts used by golf courses. Converting fleet carts to personal transportation vehicles equipped with high speed gears factory set to max out around 19 MPH is already stressing the braking limits of the cart. Try getting the cart to full speed and slamming on the brakes as if someone just cut in front of you. After doing this I determined it would be best to not modify the speed governor to go over 20 MPH (the cart still sometimes tops out at 21 MPH when I’m driving alone on level or a downhill surface).
