Re: 4 vs 6 wheels (what to choose)

Driver practice has a lot to do with how "maneuverable" either drive platform really is. Getting something put together NOW and on carpet and connected to a working control system might turn out to be a reasonable priority.

Also...designing this year's chassis based on last year's game might not be the best thing to do. Last year was really weird, this year things are back to normal--the kit chassis is plenty strong for a flat playing field.
