Great job guys, this looks sharp.

You might want to center the battery more left/right so you don't bias the drive to one side. The side with the battery will have more normal force and therefore more traction.

This might be noticeable in autonomous routines where a driver can't "correct" it by giving one side more power. Give both sides an equal amount of juice and see if it runs in a straight line.
