Default Towing Car w/ Gas Cart

How well would a gas cart tow a race car? I know that the electric have more torque but was thinking that a gas cart would eliminate having to keep a electric charged at the track (just one less detail to worry about) and the added bonus of not having to buy batteries every few years..

Default Re: Towing Car w/ Gas Cart

Our gas carts at work HATE towing. The engines rev and the carts barely move. Truthfully, it makes me a bit nervous to know the clutch sits there slipping for so long before any motion takes place. I can't imagine towing 3,000+ pounds of race car with one. My 36v Medalist will push or pull our Ranger yard truck anywhere after whatever has broken on it for the umpteenth time...

I have all gas carts and tow anything from jetskis in and out of the lake to moving our 18' bass boat.
Couple of friends also use gas carts to move their 1/4 mile Camaro at the track and his sons Modified around the track.
If someone has an issue with a gas cart it's because of worn belt, no or pizz poor maintenance.
A stock engine cart with 22" tires and a $50.00 clutch spring kit will do what you want.
