I did the first two times I tried, and I got just over 37 MPH.

Are you saying that to make me feel better? I got multiple results and had no way to choose between them. maybe they made the same mistake. 37 and 35MPH are pretty close.
IIRC there's nothing in the gear-train that would freewheel. Even with no power, one would think there'd be eddy currents and/or back EMF.
I may consider using it for a generator in a micro-hydro installation. Put a sprocket on each hub and attach both to a jackshaft.
