Anybody keeping track? it is a very impressive feat if your bot can pull it off.

Has anyone achieved 10 balls in one second? what is the fastest shooter so far?
I dunno if it is the fastest, but both 254 and 968 can unload a metric boatload of balls in the blink of an eye. Is that precise enough? One of the secrets of their shooting speed is running their ball feeder using a CIM at what might be full speed. The balls are accelerated to a substantial portion of shooting speed before they get to the shooter wheels.
