Default 2004 Elec Club Car Slows Down

2004 Elec, new batteries (6- 8volt) Feb 2010. Intermittent problem of cart slowing down to about 5 mph. Then after 'cruising' at that speed, the cart sometimes will speed back up to 19 mph on its own. Sometimes stopping the cart, sitting for a few minutes, then taking off again will 'solve' the problem. This slowing down could happen within 5 minutes of leaving home with a fully charged battery, or after driving to WalMart and back - about an hour.
We've tightened all the battery cables, made sure water levels were adequate, but we're not sure what else to check.
Any suggestions????
