Until they give us a game with sand or some soft surface, teams should really shy away from tank treads as they don't provide any competitive advantage and a whole slew of potential downfalls.

Agreed, our robot was simple...6 in. wheels with two cims per side going into andymark gear boxes. Nothing complicated and we could push everyone we wanted, we even bent a tracked bot's drive system some...oops.
Anyway, we are not using this for an actual FIRST competition it is for something else.
