how's the transmission holding up to the heat? brilliant method of getting the power to the ground by the way.

The transmission has lasted 2 years with constant abuse. The truth is that it probably gets more of a workout in the industrial mower it was designed for. Those are usually a lot heavier than a typical golf cart, with lots of starts and stops, grass and sand contamination. The passive trans cooler works very well, without a fan and the oil tank never gets too hot to touch.

The engine can run for about 45 minutes to one hour on the ten gallon tank.
