Re: Questions about building a West Coast Drive with VersaChassis

Here's an excellent post of the parts one required to build a versachassis by Andrew Lawrence:

Our team will also be building a WCD as an off season activity:

For a close look at the versachassis in action, look no further than team Copioli's reveal video:

We are using the same calculator that Brian posted to figure out what pulley and belt to get from WCP:

You decide the pulley size and the centre to centre distance to derermine the belt size.
From what I can see in videos and pictures, seems like team Copioli uses a 30 teeth pulley. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.
