The issue isn't the wheel pattern, its having the torque to turn 120+ pounds.
Put it on carpet and I'm sure you'll notice a huge difference. And like the guy from 57 said, your low speed will work, and seem easier to control. Other things to consider are robot-to-robot interaction, and the fact that youll never really have room to accelerate to that speed.
