High gear is 6.4:1, low is 11.4:1, giving us speeds of about 8 and 14.5 feet per second, riding on 4" treaded colson wheels, set up in a belt driven WCD with sheet metal construction. Utilizing gears that we had on hand was a high priority for this design, as budget for offseason improvements is next to nonexistant, and this played a large part in driving these choices. Future iterations would likely have a larger reduction spread and faster high gear, as long as the game calls for it.

This is the hint that never ends, yes it goes on and on my friend. Some people start guessing not knowing what it was, and they'll continue to guess forever just because... - JaneYoung [more]
