That is the pit lane speed limiter..usually set just under the max speed allowed
in the pit area. Driver leaves with foot to the floor and the switch on.turn off
switch at the end of the pit road.. I don't think they have a speedo in a cart
car LOL.. On a rough surface the engine will change note as you load and unload
the engine. The higher the revs the harder to hear it though.
