This is the main reason why I went with a sparky cart even though electric isn't my thing and gas is. I can quietly & slowly go up a hill without disturbing the neighbors.

To the Kentucky folks, I spent some time in your fine state, even a Wildcat fan. I meant no disrespect, and I was not comparing you with Florida or the Arizona low country. If you think about it, if you misrepresent torque, a person could easily be out $1,000 for motor/solenoid/controller&wiring upgrades trying to chase it when what is really be gained is horsepower and rpm's.

As far as spinning the tires that may be more of a function of tire tread pattern not matching the torque that is being applied to that pattern given the surface.

Six months after installing this motor, because of the lack of torque with the stock controller, I upgraded to a Curtis 1268 400A controller and then that motor was very strong. Immegiately got to 28mph and could accelerate well from the bottom of a 20° incline. All the motor needed to make it great was more amps.

You are probably right about the MCOR, especially if it is the original. A simple way to check that MCOR when you have that jumpy low pedal stuff going on is to leave key off, mash pedal fast about 20-25 times, then power up and see it it is smoother running. If so, replace the MCOR. This test can clean the wiper temporarily and can remove the jumpiness.
