Overall, kudos to both teams. Full CAD models in 3 days is no mean feat when many struggle to produce even partial models in the course of a season!
Here's my special request for the 2014 Drive in a Day: add this hole.



That allows direct drive gearbox mounting using the centered 1.125" bearing hole with tube axles on the outer wheels of a 6WD. The outside hole is 10.50" from the center hole, an integer multiple of 0.50" for convenient use of #25 chain with no tensioners required (ignoring chain stretching... yes, I know it happens). There isn't a convenient place to put a hole for 4" wheels (that bearing hole on the outside is in the way), but this is a workable spot for the 3.25" wheels. You're already my heroes, but if you add this hole you'll be even bigger heroes to me.
