It depends on if/what reduction you have after the gearbox, and what size wheels/pulleys you are using. But, the Banebots transmission has a 12:1 reduction (can be changed to 16:1 with a kit from Banebots), and the free speed of the 2.5" CIM is 5500 RPM. Under drive-train load, you can probably expect around 4320-4400 RPM. If you don't do any further reductions and are using the 6" Kit of Parts wheels, that would translate to about 9.4 (4320 rpm/60 = 72 rps /12 = 6 rps*6pi=113.094 ips/12=9.425 fps) feet per second (probably a bit lower depending on how inefficient your drive system is).
