I was pulled over in August on Sweetwater at the bottom of the hill by the Havana par three. I was going 23 , I told the officer I had just bought the cart (used) , he gave me a warning.

I took the cart to the Villages Golf Car store and they serviced it. They told me something about a tie wrap the prior owned had put on the governor, preventing it from working and allowing the cart to go faster... With the tie wrap removed it did not speed up going down on hills, before that is was like a runaway freight train... I also had them install a speedometer. I like to live a little myself but I do not believe in pushing my luck.
LOL.....I Love the analogy!
