Re: 4" vs. 6" + 8" Diameter Wheels

Various teams have done experiments to measure CoF with different wheel configurations. The data that I've seen (it was given to me by another team, so I will let them post it if they choose to) was quite surprising - wheel diameters and widths can make a big difference! Definitely worth experimenting with.
