Snow blower drive shaft rpm

Looking for the max. rpm of the shaft that the friction wheel slides on.  I know a bunch of high school math would get me the answer but that was a very long time ago.
Thanks

    Not that it would really help but I'm sure that a lot depends on the design of the particular snow blower and the engine that is powering it.
     
    Guess the real question is why would you want to know?

    Thinking about remote control. Several designs have a motor for each drive wheel. Pondering the viability of a single motor for forward/reverse. The snowblower I have, has finger controls for turning.  Small solenoids would work for those. Then a small geardrive motor for chute direction.
    I'll open mine up this weekend and get the answer.
    Thanks

    Is it something like these models(from this review) or is it a tracked snowblower? Which model are we talking about?
