Any team only using 2 cims in the drive this year is seriously hurting themselves
This year, we had a tank drive with 2 omni's in the back, so the robot would turn around its front (where the ball is), and we only used 2 cims. We could have added two more, but two seemed to be working fine; we could push well, and we could move around okay. We didn't end up adding two more because of the added weight (which would slow our hanging down).
