Re: 2011 CLub Car Precedent Speed
If an Excel cart your options are:
Speed Code 4 = 19.6 MPH with stock tires Taller Tires = some more speed (2 to 3 mph) but at the expense of torque. Bandit Motor from Plum Quick = 25ish MPH at the cost of roughly 250.00 Bandit motors are very cost effective if all your looking for is a modest boost into the low to mid twenties... http://www.plumquick.com/motors-and-...es/the-bandit/ |

It is one of many controllers that can be installed in these carts... The 1268 is a 500 Amp Controller whereas the stock controller is a 250 amp controller...

Re: 2011 CLub Car Precedent Speed
after you told me I could not do magnets- I sent an email to club car who forwarded it to a local DEALER- who called me; my question was exactly what cart did I have- I gave them a copy and paste if my cart serial number, controller, motor, and would have sent a sample of my DNA- (LOL) they ( dealer locally) said I had a "q" car. I do not disagree or agree, I said excel herein- can you tell me how to know so we can solve this -
Curtis controllers seem to be Excel ?? thanks, |

Want to put the question to rest? Give us the serial number of your cart; honestly while I'm not including myself in the list but for the most part we KNOW these carts better and many dealers do.... All we need to know is the first 2 letters; which if it is PQ then it does not appear to be an Excel cart. |

Re: 2011 CLub Car Precedent Speed
No worries... BUT HONESTLY if you have good batteries and you think you will be happy in the low to mid twenties you can NOT go wrong with a Bandit Motor Upgrade as you will get an increase in both speed and torque at a very reasonable price that is very simple to install....
