Your first post showed 28.1 for the 1/8 mile?

Oh yeah it pills a max of .25g on acceleration lol

Haha all good buddy. The numbers show a big improvement in ET on a full charge which is no big surprise I guess

So you're getting a top speed of about 30mph with just a motor and wires upgrade? WOW, If so you would be even faster with bigger tires and controller. Did you buy or make your wires?

Yeah it close to that. The app may be slightly off in mph as when I use my gps I touch 29mph and not 30. Even if it is a little off I can still use it for reference now that I have my baseline.

I made the wires myself. Since I'm a welder by trade there was plenty of lead lying around here to work with. The only money I have in the wiring upgrade is the heat shrink and connectors.

As far as the tires and controller they are stock. It's a sleeper cart lol. I passed two bicyclists the other day and man they were pissed!! For the tire upgrade I'll be going with 205/30/14 which measures about 20.75" in diameter. That will boost the speed slightly but the GE FSIP 700amp controller should reduce those ETs drastically since the stock controller is 225amp.

I'll make a new post once the controller is in.
