Triangle is just odd although if you did something like a triganol pyramid (4 triangular faces) then it could be rather useful if you were flipped or something because with just 4 wheels, two along one edge and two along its opposite skew edge, you would always have driving wheels on the ground. But yet again this is faced with the size problem.

one of the pros of a trianglular base (assuming you also go with a triangular drive train, don't know how you'd go about that though) is that you always keep all wheels in contact with the ground even when going over ramps and things at sharp angles. could be handy if they ever give us a really multi-leveled field with lots of ramped obstacles and stuff...
