Tom,

I think that you're guessing too low. I think that there will be some teams at 15 fps (10 mph) and the majority at 6-8 fps.

Reminder to all teams: don't even think about running your drive base around without weighing it down to the maximum weight of 130 lbs. Get some boxes of screws or something and send them for a ride on your drive base. You will find out very soon if the carpet is your friend or enemy.

Use plenty of duct tape... those boxes will want to fall off!

Good luck,
Andy B.
