Hello everyone I’m about to start a project here in the next couple months and need some insight to make this semi safe. I’m putting a 1100cc bike engine supposedly 90 hp into a golf cart and making the golf cart a 6x6 with a tubed Frame. I plan on using 1inch solid rear axles for both of the rear axles and only making the furthest axle drive. I plan on going up to 80mph for track purposes and need to know what size chain and sprocket to use and what’s the best disc brakes to use. This will be a 5 speed manual if that has anything to do with it I have built race cars before and small go karts but not sure about combining the two together any insight will be helpful because it being a death trap thank you.

Honestly sounds like a pipe dream! And I hope that pisses you off enough that you actually build this sob! I don't have the capability of building such a demon! And and. And I live only 2 mi away from plum quick motors. If you don't know you better ask somebody !.. #world's fastest golf cart.

I’ve flipped them over at 55 mph. It’s no day at the park. Let me tell you.

Try doing it at 167mph, it’s a rush!

How is flipping someone off at167 any different than 90 or a hunnerd?

Because it being a death trap. Your description, not mine. But I couldn't agree more. I honestly think 90 hp. and 80 mph in a golf kart sounds like a good way to kill yourself, or at least very serious injuries. If you have the experience that you say you do, why not build something with a little lower C. G. A little less prone to flip or barrel roll. I doubt that you'll be allowed to take it to the local golf course.

Build an off road machine, you would be much happier.

G'me sumthin to write on
If you do proceed, you should plan on trashing the entire existing steering assembly, it is not made for speed.
