Thumbs up Re: Offseason 2012 chassis

We used CIMple boxes this year for Maccanums ... but they dont have enough torque to turn the wheels for straifing (spelled that wrong). And i believe it would be alot better if you had more torque over speed, because if a team gets in your way it would be easy to push through them, unlike if you only have speed, then you can't.

And Nick did you use 1 transmission per side or 1 per wheel??

I dont beleive we will use CIMple boxes for drive again, but instead use 2-speed Gen 2's, then we have speed or torque depending on what we need
