Well, that just looks adorable.
It definitely needs the biggest/most powerful engine that can be shoehorned in.
Here are some specs
Wheelbase 84 in (2,134 mm)
Length 156 in (3,962 mm)
Width 62 in (1,575 mm)
Height 60 in (1,524 mm)
Nothing like building a project car before anyone has actually bought the car (or even have plans to buy the car).
Y'know, I think I might lean EV town runabout for that one. I don't think trying to make that fast is going to lead to great fruition.

"Completed IRS measures appx 56" hub face to hub face" hmmm....

A couple motocycle powered carts did pretty well...

Ahh Glasshoppah, there is much to learn.
Oh, I know. This particular thing just looks -to me- like it wants to do a silly little parody of stateliness.
You *can* make just about anything fast, but this looks like it's got a bunch of metal up high on a tiny wheelbase/track.
Dr. Ian Malcolm also said "Must go faster!"
So there's that.
Also just looking through marketplace, what about a Suzuki SV650 or SV1000 engine for that V-Twin torque over an inline 4?
I've seen one with the front sheet metal extended about a foot and it was powered by a SBC, or maybe it was a Hemi. The owner offered five dollars to whoever could identify the make and model. Quickest five bucks I've ever made.
