wow, what wheels were you using, we have a pretty vicious gear ratio and we break traction and slide before we stall anything. we are 12.34 - 1 with 6 inch traction wheels.
Our Jaguars blew with our six wheel drive robot with 6 inch Plaction wheels being direct driven by Supershifters. I don't know if it was in high or low gear or some combination of the two. Anyway, not an unusual drive train. If it were just one Jag I'd chalk it up to random defects but all four blew after the stress test that lasted a minute or two. They weren't set to brake mode, by the way.
