On a direct route it is 23.88 feet from the wall to the ball tee. You are starting around 3 feet in front of that with a 36" robot. Your arm poker that is in front of you covers the other .88 feet so you only have to travel 20 feet. If your top speed is 15 ft/sec I imagine in a direct route you could manage to knock the ball off in around two seconds. There might be one sub two (1.9999 sec) and several near two (2.0-2.2) but I imagine it will be few in number. Less than ten definitely less than twenty. In the 1 to 2 percentile. I see more of the better autonomous mode being in the three to four range so that they don't just ram the ball off. Maybe someone can grab it in less than five or someone will do multiple task like knock that ball of and grab the 2x with 10 seconds.
