Re: pic: Up Swampthing's Skirt

swampthing is a 2-speed 6wd drivetrain. the middle wheels are lower about 3/8' by accident they were originaly meant to be .2" but the welding warped the frame. perhaps for the best. the front and rear wheels are in more as a direct result of the octagonal shape, Although this configuration put the wheels in more of a circular pattern and in my opinion increased performance and maneuverability. On Team 494's Dyno the top speed was rated at 11.5 FPS. the wheels have a coefficient factor of 1.6 on the competition carpet. winner of the Florida and palmetto regionals. it has truly proven its worth.
