Jesus what a fast cart

TerryH · 03-13-2014, 10:11 PM

According to the calculator, 7700 actually. Not like that's impossible. Pretty high revs for a street cart though.

I will check with him in the morning on the tire size as I am not 100% sure. its a 2013 cart and other than gears and speed code, is stock from what I can tell. He owns 9 EZGO/Club car dealerships so I know he is being accurate. He showed me his phones gps app after our last run and it read 37mph......

I'll bet he has 22 or 23 inch tires.

My Iphone GPS app reads 6 mph faster than my Garmin. It's useless. You need to ask him what he did to that cart to get "37 mph". I'm sure a lot of RXV owners would like to know. Pretty sure he has 22 or 23 inch tires and a hell of a lot more done than a simple speed code and 10.5:1 gears. If not then I would be looking at an RXV too.

205 65 10 are his tires. All I can tell you is we did three runs and it ticked off 37 on the first, 36 and then 36 on the second and third.

205/65-10 have a nominal diameter of 20.5". They can be actually +/- 1" if measured mounted.

His rpm is still high, 6000+ (my calculator on this computer stops at 34mph. I know RXV's use an AC motor which is different then every other ezgo. I don't know the stock motor limits but that is a high rpm by any standard.

Was he going downhill?

20.5" tire @ 37 mph = 6400 rpm on the calculator. Not that high really. We turn 10,000+ with our series motors but only for a few seconds at a time. The question is how sustainable the a/c motors will be at that rpm if they are run wide open for an extended period of time. I'm not very familiar with the a/c motor configurations. Bottom line is that rpm is certainly attainable so the 37 mph is totally plausible.

here in Orlando FL, all flat :)

Ask JohnnieB is 6400 rpm is high. That's when his motor let go and locked up the rear tires. Scary stuff.
