Re: HELP WITH VEX
They can stack the gears.
Lets assume they are driving a 84 tooth gear with a motor, that gear is driving a 12 tooth gear.
If they put a 12 tooth gear on the same shaft as the 84 tooth gear and the drive the new 12 gear with an 84 tooth gear they will get more speed out of it.
Remember, that speed is the inverse of torque, so has the speed goes up, the torque goes down. So while the last 12 tooth gear is spinning pretty fast, it won't have a lot of power.
