Re: pic: VEX High Reduction Gearbox

If my 24 hours of lemons team took this with us driving from Detroit to San Francicso, strapped on the back of the back of the race-car for the full length of the race, and then drug it back to Detroit, the little wheel would have only turned about 40 degrees.

Another way of looking at this is 1 JVN small wheel degree is equal to about 168 miles. In order words, our trip to Atlanta this spring is only 4.5 JVN small wheel degrees. That doesn't sound so bad.
