Do you have a weight estimate?
As of right now it weighs around 13.25 lbs.

Those white wheels are illegal for FTC.
Those are actually 4" VersaWheels from VexPro. Although the color and tread pattern does look similar.

Remember that FTC fields are 12' square(thus far), 6-7 feet per second would clear the field in about 2 seconds. That's ridiculously fast for this scale. Scaling that up to FRC field sizes, it's like gearing for 30+fps free speed.
Thanks. When I was deciding on my gear ratios I knew I wanted something fast, but I wasn't exactly sure how fast was fast and how fast was too fast. But I figured that someone here could point me in the right direction so that I can make the right adjustments.
