Default Start Sirius Golf Cart Height

Took a measurement from bottom of the Star Sirius golf cart tire,to the highest point of the roof and came up with 6ft 5 inches….. are there any issues with going under tunnels?

Thanks

This has been discussed several times, with several posts with links to the height of the various tunnels, a search of this site should get you the information you need. As I recall there were a couple of tunnels in the North that are lower and may be a problem. Remember you do NOT want to go down the middle of the tunnel, there maybe someone coming the opposite direction....

I've been riding mine from Spanish Springs down to where we live in lake Denham and haven't run across any problems yet.

Lifted cart in front of me traveling to Lopez 2 weeks ago. Right down the tunnel middle. A bicycle entered the tunnel, tried to correct away from the cart, bike lost control hit the wall.

Cart causing issue never stopped, and yes they knew the bike fell. I as well as 2 carts behind me, and a cart approaching stopped. Got the young lady and bike out of the tunnel. We carry a first aid kit, cleaned wounds, and bandaged. One of the carts put her bike on the back and drove her home.

4 great people still doesn’t make up for one stupid person who was more worried about scraping their lifted cart.

My Star Sirius will scrape on the Saddlebrook Tunnel if you're not very careful and supposedly, there's a tunnel up near Lopez where you'll scrape.

The list and heights are attached.
