So the 40mph must have existed as far back as then.... I heard it on the TV.

If governor taken out the gas lawnmower engine will rev up to the amount of air it can pull in thus eventually reaching top speed around 38 MPH depending on gearing and tire size. The carts you see going obnoxiously fast have the governor tied off so it don’t govern. Most every time golf clubs are hanging off back.
