Re: Pulling Cars

Team 348's 2006 robot, "The Commander", with 12 wheels, pulled a 87' Dodge Dakota. It could have pulled more, but the wheels and hopper are not connected, but all connected to a metal rod. The wheels were moving so much, that they could not keep a grip when we added a 2002 Chevy Avalanche. Our 2007 robot could do it, but with an eight of an inch clearance, it bottoms out very easily.
