Shooter Details:
We are using the 3.875" banebot wheels with the orange rubber compound - - http://banebots.com/pc/WHB-HS4-398/T80P-394BO-HS4

It's set up for about a 1/2" of compression on the disk.

For speeds we are running a AM-9015 on the first wheel with a pulley setup at 42T:12T ratio (~4500RPM). The next wheel is a Banebot 550, setup on a 30T:12T ratio (~7700RPM). The third wheel is also a 550 with a 22T:12T ratio (~10500RPM).

Thanks for sharing this information... I hope when the season is over other teams will share these numbers as well and what methods they used to work out how to come to these decisions.
