Re: Is it worth it to implement traction control?

Our testing on the actual surface with the actual trailer shows us that when you are not slipping you will get up to speed at least 30% faster than without and for turning it saves at least 50% of the time. Trying to rotate the goal or rotate aroiund the goal from a dead stop is brutal if you are slipping the wheels.
