Re: pic: 226 Off-Season Prototype Chassis

That looks very cool (and strong )!

I'm just curious on how well it turns on carpet, or any surface for that matter, It just seems like the wheels have too much traction and are spaced too far apart for it to turn, without an immense amount of power going to the wheels. What are the reductions in the gearbox that allow for turning? and what is it's top speed?
