Then again, the rules are strict enough in regard to passing over the balance boards (G25, G28, G29) that I doubt there will be a need to go over the barrier. Our team has been developing a 6-wheel drive system that we are pretty happy with, because of the increased mobility over the 4-wheel. However, 4-wheel drives will have a fine time navigating the field as well, I think.
