Using the same values, if the speed limit is 65 and you increase by 50%, that's 97.5 miles per hour.

So an unregistered, non street legal cart doing 30 is equivalent to driving 97.5 miles per hour.

I don't know TH... a cart doing 30 is the equivalent to a cart doing 30. I'm an engineer, so I know about velocity..
