Wait. Wait, wait, wait. Did I miss something, or are you trying to come straight out of the 11:72 gearbox and into the wheel? Is 11:72 the only reduction you have, or is there another stage of belt reduction in there?

FYI, single CIM into 11:72 into an 8" wheel is something like 24 fps top speed. That's insane and will work horribly for you.
