speed upgrade options for series cart
I'd like to get some more performance out of my 89 resistor Marathon cart...
I have heard there's not a lot you can do except for upgrading to 48v on a series cart? if i want to stay with stock wheels and not do a lift... what are my best options? Thanks! -J |

Switch to 48v and solid state speed control for a 30% increase in speed and torque
This will turn your stock wheels faster with more power.... |

A $225 rewound motor from Plum Quick may be your answer.
It will be a little harder on the resistor assbly but it would work OK. ScottyB's suggestion is ideal if you have the budget for it. |

Re: speed upgrade options for series cart
if I do the rewind, can I still upgrade to 48v in the future?
Scotty's suggestion isn't perfect in that I need to replace the throttle assembly to a pot box, plus the controller... that will get a bit pricey and almost makes me want to consider a newer cart that just has bad batteries. -J |

Re: speed upgrade options for series cart
no problem on that, just want to make sure I'm doing things in the right order and as long as I can do the scottyb upgrades later, I'll be fine with the motor and not wasting money on upgrading solenoids, etc in the mean time.
