Does anyone know the fps of the 2013 kit-bot chassis? Thanks.

Supposed to be 10 ft/s iirc, and if not then very close.

Top speed: 9.7 feet/sec (approximate), with 150 pounds total robot weight

Our team made a kit chassis with one cim one each side and it went 11 ft/sec but we were only 107 pounds roughly

Your weight doesn't affect your speed, only your acceleration.

All else being equal, a heavier vehicle has greater rolling friction and thus somewhat lower top speed.

Which in a lot of cases, is more important than top speed.
