What is the cost to upgrade to the high speed motor and will it effect the batteries adversely?


When I bought my Club Car eight years ago it clocked a measured mile at 15 MPH. I mention this to dealer and they agreed it was not right. They picked it up and had it back the same day. (No charge). It seems it was set for golf course speed. They reset it so it maxed out at 19.6 MPH.
