Default Re: Need for speed!

You'll need these things at least:

48 volts
HD solenoid
2 GA cables
High amp controller

You will probably have to go to a built motor to get the type of speed you're wanting, but you can always try running the stock 36 volt motor on 48 volt first, that will get you 33% more speed and torque than what you've got now. You'll also probably have to go to 8:1 gears.

I think it was sportcoupe, who did it, but he made a cart go 36 mph on 18 inch tires and it was pretty wicked. If you can find that thread it may give you some ideas.
