I guess it comes down to one underlying question that we all will find out at the first competition. How fast can we all go and still maneuver in a safe fashion without ramming other robots? As we all know, light taps are okay

actually at suffield shakedown the speed actually allows you to get away from bots who decide to pester you.

we can get 12-14 fps on high gear, significantly less on low gear.
