Default how long can i go wide open?

i live about 3 miles away from up town. my question is how long can i go non stop without hurting anything? i asked the guy that got it running right and he said miles he's gone wide open. i kindof thought he said that so he's make money to rebuild it.

If the cart is stock, and the governor is in place, run it flat out without worry.

I ran my stock Ez-go 52 miles full throttle almost the entire trip.

My stock/slighty modified/no govenor, Yamaha at about 4200 rpm for 3-4 miles.

I actually think those little engines like that kinda running

Yep "Bucko" A golf cart is just like an ATV, built to run flat out for miles on end. FFS. A "GOLF CART" is built for a "GOLF COURSE" Short sprints of .............errrr ............300 yards or less between shots and then add in the variable,,, "How long is the next shot ?" By the time time the old fart has selected all the variables, poked "a wet finger into the wind" etc, and selected a club from his bag ( which is invariably incorrect and shanks the ball into a hitherto unconsidered piece of goat pasture) The bloody engine is cold again !! Golf carts are not ATV's. They are (for the great part) driven by myopic old men with Depends in they're trousers or there wives who are convinced "that Buick Roadmasters" are the way of the future and that parking accidents are the fault of the young Honda driver who had the audacity to park within 200 yards of the bloody Buick and procede to ram them at every opportunity in the vainglorious attempt to feed "Twiddles the ******* cat" by 5.30 am.

Sorry for the rant :(

Chris.
