Re: Ground clearance

Another thing about the inconsistent turning axis is that it can be used to your advantage with the right drivers and driving practice. Watch the 2011 Einstein finals(both matches) and watch 254 very closely. You will see that they do this. One example of the right way to use the inconsistent turning axis is when they come from picking up a tube in the feeder station. They transverse the whole field backwards and then right before they get to the racks, they brake, shifting their turning axis and causing them to use the turning axis closer to the racks, allowing them to turn and immediately score instead of having to turn and then drive closer to the racks.
