Didn't your team use idle wheels last year to measure wheel speed? Did last year's experience influence your opinion so far?

I can't speak for 217, but one thing that scares me about non-driven wheels this year is that every pound of downforce on a non-powered wheel takes away from your maximum tractive force (and therefore acceleration). Does the loss of this force make up for the benefits of an otherwise simple way to get high-fidelity anti-slip control? I don't know.
