My team was looking into buying it but then decided to buy the rhino tank treads instead on kick off day. Last year my team used the performance wheels with the green tread. The green tread sounds great, but actually sucks alot. the pebbled black top looks more promising then the other tread for the performance wheels. Stats wise it is way better then the green tread and seems more versatile then the other type of tread.

A quick suggestion... RIVOT THE TREAD TO PERFORMANCE WHEEL!!!!

Last year we tightened the tread as much as we possibly could, but the tread kept on rolling off edge of the wheel every match. We resorted to asking a team in the pits for some pop rivots to semi permanently attach them to the wheel.

As for the 8 wheel drive...I would be careful and make sure you have enough clearance. It may be hard to maneuver and line up for obstacles. But then again it solely depends on your strategy. The drive train is the most important part of the robot this year.

Goodluck!
