Default looking for advice on my cart for pushing my race car

I have an older 36volt DS cart. It needs some luv. I want to use the cart to push my race car 3000lbs. I plan to fad up a push bar (no biggie). the cart has 3 car batteries so they will need to be swapped out

My questions/over view:

Thinking about going 48 volts; can I modify my charger from 36 to48v?
I am confused on what i need to replace to go 48 volts (besides the batteries and calbes)

can a 36 volt cart go to 72 volts?
I plan to lower the cart and add nice wheels and low profile tires


Ok so what do I need to do to make this cart perform well for pushing my race car and riding around the pits and neighborhood?

Thanks guys

First off, no you cant modify the 36v charger, you would have to get a 48v charger...
You can upgrade to whatever voltage you want, but 48v upgrades are the most common. A 36v motor (which you have) actually produces 33% more torque and speed on 48v. I would get with Scottyb (cartsunlimited.net) and tell him what you want to do and he will set you up.
I personally think upgrading to 48v and keeping your 36v motor in there is your best bet...
