It appears to be simulating each side as if the 1 side powered the entire robot going forward, and only 1 CIM is ever used on the 3 tabs. It this intentional? Other than that it looks pretty good.
Though I would caution -- if you replay your matches this year, even on an 'open field' like this year, how far did your robot ever sprint in a straight line? Might be best to optimize it for a distance based upon your strategy (20-40ft for us)

Ah! good point. I do have all other power calculations assumed to be using 1/4 of the robot weigh on one wheel (4 wheels evenly bearing the weight). My mistake is that I assumed the same one wheel for acceleration in that it would be accelerating the entire mass of the robot by itself when it would only be accelerating 1/4th the mass as well, right?
