A small price to pay for a quiet ride, close to 300 miles per 5 gallon fill up, great handling rack and pinion steering, and bump absorbing four wheel independent suspension. Running a cart at high RPM’s without high speed gears for thousands of miles can’t be a good thing for the engine in the long run.
Anyone living in the Historic section can show you otherwise. The same for Odell Circle, and various other parts of The Villages.
