What did you use and why?

Chezy drive, same as 254. It has worked well for 971 for the last 8 years, and 254 for longer. Our driver knows how to drive it, and it works well for precise motion and fast motion. Maneuverability is all about the gains on your input devices, the tuning, and practice.
Every time I see someone try to drive a fast robot well with tank drive, I can tell from their driving style. A little part of me always dies...
