No way lol, That would be sweet though if you used the sprockets to gear down the motor 4:1 and run on super RPM with a light as hell bot

But in reality, this is powering our centripetal arm, and it would be nice to use the sprockets to gear down the motor instead of a gearbox to equal sized sprockets. I already have the second gear made (60 tooth with machined holes to mount on the arm spot done by our machine shop)

I do like the shaft diameter option though!! I'll look into that tomorrow!
