speaking on behalf of my team

what we are amazed about is we had enough friction on lenoleun without any exttra weight. this also enables us to move much faster than other robots that puts half of the weight of two goals. by dragging two goals one also has to ensure that all of the wheels are facing the correct way.

that day we were also surprised that the whole time we didn't blow one fuse. and that was 210lbs 32ft down a lenoleum hallway. we really aren't scared of slipping!
