Now to go 40 you're going to need another battery or 2, Maybe 3 or 4. There is a guy on gaminde.net that might be able to make a governor for you.

Thanks for that link and the the MCOR thoughts. I wonder if the person at that site is the same person who was sharing how to build a DIY speedy link. I will look at the site and some old posts I saved.
My 40 mph comment was a bit tongue and cheek. If I was to ever do such a thing I would have to check out The Assassin. Alot less work and money than to drop in 6 or 8-12v batteries and change all required components :coolsmiley:
I have no intent to go 40, but thinking of the OP’s question, I have always wondered how one would build a solution where you could control the top end MPH of the cart based on motor speed (RPMs) in a series cart . Close to what you are talking about but instead of a manual switch have that switch be triggered by the input from some type or rotational speed sensor at the motor. When you hit this many RPMs, back off voltage to motor. That is as deep as I ever got into my thinking. I am not an electrical engineer and have no idea where to start. It is on my back burner though and one never knows.
