Re: i need help in need of speed
Welcome to BGW
To get to the speed you want you will need to upgrade to 48 volts, 4 gage cables, 48 volt solenoid, a 48 volt charger, a high amp controller capable of 48 volts and a high output/high rpm motor. |

Re: i need help in need of speed
I have a '97 Series/Fleet cart with an Alltrax 400a Programable controller running 48v to the stock 36v motor on regular diameter tires, 22mph (GPS). The only way my cart will go faster is to:
Mount taller tires Switch out the motor Add more voltage High speed gears All of the above! |

Re: i need help in need of speed
If you are building it for yourself to use, enjoy, and keep, spend the money.
If you are doing this to turn a profit, be very careful how much you spend. |

Re: i need help in need of speed
Sorry, but if you don't want to spend $1-2K for 30mph..., sell it and buy a scooter.
To get this cart to run at that speed you will need ample quantities of TMS (Time/Money/Sweat). More of any one of these will lessen the demand on the others. |
