Re: [FTC]: Answers for an inexperienced team
You can always double up on the gears so they run side by side. In VEX parts we have rack/pinion gears that we've run side by side to lift 20 lbs of robot. An important design point is to try to have more than one tooth of the gear take the load. So if you can use a larger spur gear to drive your rack gear that would help.
