That meet your expectations?

I've got the double sprockets and the #35 chain with link kits.
I've got 10 single stage Stackerboxes.
I -may- have some 26 tooth sprockets on some used tires if not I'll need to order those.
I've got some sprocket spacers for the AndyMark tires.
If you really want to go overboard on these controllers go 4 wheel, your choice. Otherwise looks absolutely fine to me. Realistically there will be more variance in "aggressive" driving than from any individual design choice.
