[Garret]

This drive train worked very well because it prevented us from tipping over when going over the bump and also absorbed the shock of hitting the ground after climbing the bump at full speed. I sometimes sometimes it looked as if we actually were jumping over it.

We used pneumatics mounted on one end to the frame and the other end to the wheel module. It worked (at least mechanically) in a similar way to 177's drivetrain did.

We used the KOP part wheels from 2007 and screwed roughtop conveyor belting from mcmaster onto the surface for extra traction. The omni wheels are the 6in plastic Omni wheels from AndyMark. We used the center two wheels on side as traction wheels and the omnis were on the ends so that we could turn easier.

I can post pictures if you would like.
