Getting more range out of a 4 wheel shooter

I'll try to describe what we have as best as possible. Essentially, we have two SETS of wheels that are mounted horizontal of each other. These wheels are mounted on a CIMple box with the default gear ratio which has a CIM-U-LATOR w/ a BaneBot 775 going into it. Both of the wheels are setup this way.

When we run both sets at full speed, we max out at probably 10 feet with our 8 foot height but are never able to go above 8 feet and can never get farther than probably 15 feet if we do not go for a high basket.

Any help would be greatly appreciated and if you have any questions feel free to ask.
