This is a great idea!
If someone has a spare set of free weights to add to your experimental set up, you could use those to simulate the added weight of goals for the robots that lift goals for added traction. That might be easier to use (and calibrate) than a set of springs. Just find out how much weight of the goal is lifted by the robot (for example, we know we transfer about 90 pounds of the weight of the goal to our robot when we pick it up, the rest of the weight stays on the "outboard" goal wheels), and stack that weight on the robot before the traction test.
