No, wait, I have more! (Chassis and drive systems are my favorite topics)
White papers:
Had to go to the WayBack machine to find the URL for these two, for some reason IFI has removed the links to them from their site:
http://www.ifirobotics.com/docs/Chas...%20Process.pdf
http://www.ifirobotics.com/docs/Driv...provements.pdf
More whitepapers from CD-Media:

And, finally some pictures; since pictures are worth a thousand words, some examples of drivetrains:
Mecanum
Omniwheel-based holonomic
Tank Treads
Swerve Drive
Another (quite different) swerve
4WD
And, lastly my favorite drive system type:
6wd
Well, I said lastly above. I lied. Here are my last links, this time for real. In my opinion, the best bang-for-the-buck upgrade you can make to the kit chassis/drivetrain:
2 more of
these,
2 of
these,
and add
these to taste.
Once you read through all of the stuff linked to in this thread, you'll understand why I recommend these modifications.
