11 tooth pinion direct driving a 70 tooth gear on a 4 inch blue nitrile wheel. 6 CIMs, no shifter.
(5,310 RPM CIM Free Speed) x (11/70 gear reduction) x (4 inch x Pi wheel circumference) x (1/12 inches to feet conversion) x (1/60 per minute to per second conversion) = 14.56 ft/sec theoretical unloaded speed.
We never measured the actual speed.
Not the fastest out there, but fast enough for our strategies. Having a great driver helps.
