Pneumatics were not powerful enough and we found that the time it took to regain the compressed air that was lost was not fast enough. There are wheels midway up on the barrel that provide the propulsion. The pneumatics just provide the trigger to push the noodles forward into the spinning wheels.

it might be a flex plate from an automatic, it holds the ring gear and is sheet metal rather than a heavy flywheel from a manual transmission set-up.

I love the foam dart shooter--a great idea for a demo bot!
