Can't tell you. Proprietary information, antoninny

Maybe if you send me a check for a large sum, I might be persuaded to tell you that......

Let's just say it goes fast or slow.... from COUGH ft/sec to COUGH ft/sec.....

Wink Classified information
Our estimated top speed is classified, but the information will probably be declassified at our first regional in Cleveland.

We can safely say that our top speed will be under 40 mph.

our robot stays in on place... it actually picks up and moves the playing field around it... there is a rule against damaging the field, NOT moving it...

Uh, yeah. I'm down at the other end of the testing facility away from jon abad. Aparently he was going to be testing the speed of our driveline with me, but...the robot is already down here and he didn't even start timing yet. We'll have to get back to you.
