Additionally, I'd like to see if they evaluated a greater quantity of wheels compared to wheel diameter. While I don't doubt there would be a correlation there, I'm curious if it's a 1:1 relationship. After all, this point did originate with having 6WD swerves providing more "pushing power."

That is indeed your right, and I too would be skeptical if the situations were reversed. Until we have our testing results in a more organized format, we're going to withhold them.

If I am understanding your second question, are you asking if we tested more than 1 wheel at a time?



About the testing setup- the wheels are mounted on a pivot arm, weight is applied at the end of the arm thus giving a standard "normal" force to any wheel placed in the rig. A torque wrench was utilized, and torque was applied to each wheel (each wheel being affixed to a shaft). We then recorded the torque each wheel experienced right up until it slipped. Pretty simple.
