58 m.p.h. GoKart. (so far)

[FreeRunner15]

Just showing off some progress.
Had to remove the speed limiter, err, i mean TAV.
Did lose a considerable amount of torque by doing so but oh well I will be fixing that with an ethanol/methanol tune.

I mounted the camera on my pedal so bare with me here.

If you were speed limited by the tav you were tuning it wrong. I have the tav on a bsp engine and I've been 60+mph so far.
