I agree,
only engineered to go 15?
Engineered gearing to only go 15 MPH. The cart will go as fast as governor lets it or if governor taken out as fast as the lawnmower engine can take in air. Which can be between 30 and 40 MPH depending on gearing and tire height. Or I electric carts case controller or altered controller. I seen some 8” tires on golf carts go as high at 30 or little over which beside them in my car. With the 8” tire engine pretty much tapped out around 30.
