Re: speed question
I think you are about to blow a motor up.
18" tires 40 mph What is the cart gear ratio? And what is the speed on flat ground |

Re: speed question
At 58.4" in circumference, you tires are about 18.6" tall and if you have stock gears (12.44:1) in the differential, your motor is spinning a bit over 8,950 RPM at 39.8 MPH.
It would probably be wise to install a blast shield around the motor and wear Kevlar underwear. |
