That would depend on the game, obviously if it were a game like last year I would say 8fps. For a game like 2008? 10fps seems more than fast enough for me. There are games that I would prefer more oomph (2007) and would settle for 6fps (For reference, in 2007 the team I was on never crossed past midfield) This is one of the major reasons I like AM products, they have a wide range of options that do not change the mounting/interface options. Heck, if I wanted to switch to 6" wheels I could do so relatively easily with a simple swap of gears in the transmission.
