o0o, this is just the first step. Later you will put a seat on the cart with a complete drive system, second car battery, and a tool box. You'll see

Well i wasn't thinking about the riding part but now that you talk about it that would make things easier. Then to go even further have you operator interface mounted on the cart and have it drive up to your teams operating spot. i know i wouldn't mind sitting down while driving the robot.

I'm telling you, we had the charging system on the cart for about 4 years(just like the one your designing) and i just added a second car battery, a seat with a 4 link harness, 2 joystick drive, a tool box, and probably going to add a mini fridge. The electrical system your designing is only step one :D you'll see

I don't forsee caster wheels driving too well. Remember that Master C isn't letting us change the wheels on this baby.

Hovercraft, here we come!

you must of locked the casters from being able to rotate around. what I meantr was a shopping cart style drive, one wheel is wobbly, the other keeps flipping around etc etc.

but I do believe that they would have some nice speed to them when they are locked in place lol

I only have to think to leave my troop transport trailer hitched or unhitched during the race, yes i said it, i made a trailer with seats for the rest of the operations crew :yikes: :D :yikes:

as for cart racing, lets just say it should be very interesting

Can we negotiate for 8mph for transport and as for racer, to each his own?

A little electrical tape, and 5 becomes an 8.

BTW, let's keep this back on topic with the wiring plans. Cart drag racing can be discussed in chit-chat.
