Does it really matter if it has bumpers if it is the proper weight?

I have 4", 6" and 8" AndyMark plaction wheels: I assume 4"?
I'll likely stick with the keyed shafts as I only have a limited amount of hex shaft and bearings.
What distance between the wheels (frame dimension)?
What configuration of the wheels: center drop with 6 wheels all driven with chain?

Fans are no problem I have fans and a CFM meter somewhere.

I have a lot of ways I can measure and log temperature.
What sort of resolution are you after?

Anyone care if a cRIO is used as the control system for this test?
I'll use the FRC approved master breaker and the FRC PDB that came with the cRIO if I do that.
