I put 30' from 4' high and played around until I got 24 mph. I converted this to fps and then calculated the rotational frequency a 6" wheel would need to achieve this speed...
It's 1337 rpm, which while not terribly informative yet because this was a back of the envelope calculation, it's still pretty 1337!
