Re: More Wheels?
adding more wheels may increase your surface area, but it spreads out your weight. The net gain in traction: exactly 0. Even extra powered wheels dont help, assuming you keep the amount of power is the same. the only reason why 4 powered wheels could be better than two powered wheels is 1: more motors to power the 4 wheels, therefore more power or 2: if some of your wheels dont have traction, it's possible to pull yourself out of a bind with the wheels that do. It's a common misconception that more wheels = more traction, thats why you see so many 4 wheel drive cars in the ditch during wisconsin winters
