Absolutely, robots with shifters can certainly reach 15-16 FPS. My point was that the KOP bot will not if it weighs anywhere near 120 without battery bumpers and minibot.

If I did the math right the KOP setup (at 148lbs total) will take over 100 ft. to accelerate to top speed. Adding an additional pair of CIMs still puts it at over 60ft. to reach its top speed.
