A couple members of our team did calculations for the majority of last night and more wheels don't help you at all. I would say 4 is the max you'd need for a drive train this year. We toyed with the concept of a 2 or 3 wheeled drive train but stayed with the 4 wheeled system mainly because of the contact with the side carpet.
I'd love to hear other opinions on this and how many wheels people are planning on using.
