It's driven by a human!
Sounds like a brushless RC car, but...

Um...those Nighthawk karts are ~$10,000.00
https://www.gokartgod.com/products/nighthawk-pulse?variant=48217827901659
I got less than $1,500.00 into my Hell-raiser
It's "powered" by a 48VDC 4,000W motor (~5HP)
...NOT a 72V 20,000W (~20HP) motor
&
I can do "doughnuts" too

Madness is always worth your time, as long as someone else is risking his life.

I watched the entire video
...& I've been tryin' to tell you'all electric karts are BAD AZZ
BUT
IMO that seemed like a "long form" commercial, to help sell these really expensive karts
A kart "slams" into a mini-van
...hard enough to break a tie-rod, on the van
...& the kart is fine/undamaged???
&
I wonder, how many karts (in total) were used to make this commercial (kinda like the Chargers, on a Dukes of Hazzard, movie set)
...& how many supplemental (un-shown) battery packs, were used?
&
All of "that"
...& they had NO break-downs?? yea...sure
Also, I question the (75 - 90 MPH) top speed claims
...they were "zippin' right along"
...but, they didn't seem ta be going 70+ MPH
* Q:
How many RPM's (on a gas powered kart) would it take to "go" 75 MPH, on a kart with that size tires?
NOT tryin' ta be NEGATIVE (-)
...but, "we" gotta "Keep it Real"

The kart was so bad ***, they hit a mini van, and then they offered it to random tourists along the road to drive? On a mountaintop? I call BS, too.
