My suggestion is get it done ASAP, so the driver(s) have time to train, and programers have time to program it. We actually built a test bot using a second set of Mecanums, using a 3/4" plywood base fot driver training and programming.

We are planning to do the same thing except with a legit second drivetrain.
Our plan is to use the 6 inch mecanum. Is the 8.45:1 ratio to slow? I know that mecanum is inefficient and will lose some of that speed but how much?
