A wider wheelbase does give it more torque due to the increased radius. This will not be needed to turn though, because with 2 cims powering 1 wheel, we will have unlimited power (not actually, but for FIRST applications). Also, because there are omni's in the front and rear, there will be a negligible force of friction counteracting the torque.
