We went with a wide robot this year and it is a decision I regret making. Although, they turn nicely, it's a lot easier to topple over when driving. You really have to pay attention to CG when designing a wide robot.
With a long robot, there are ways to keep yourself from rocking back and forth while still getting the traction you need.
