Maybe you're thinking of the midlevel gear we ran at MMR, which was around 6 or 7 FPS. I was referring to the "overdrive" gear, which we didn't use until late in the season. It was theoretically 13 FPS. In practice it was less than that, as we found when we clocked it in the 10-11 FPS range in some testing last summer. It was quite a bit more than 6, for sure. Are you sure you have your numbers right?
