You look like you're going over the height limit in the picture due to the can stabilizer elevator, not sure if I'm just seeing that wrong.
The only thing I would add to this would be some way to stabilize the stack as you move, as right now it looks like it could topple fairly easily with a quick turn.
-4 CIMs are going to drive, and 2 RS-775s are going to the elevator at 1:10 reduction
-Wheels are 6in diameter, but I haven't tested with the scoring platform. I could probably add an idler wheel in the middle or something like that
-One of my friends on the team actually pointed this out that I might be going over the height limit. I measured the height to be dangerously close to 78in, but I think if I shorten the arm bars 1 or 2 inches it should be fine.
-I never thought of a stack stabilizer before... perhaps I can utilize the box tubing that the intakes are mounted on?
