They have actually been built for much longer than 2005... I know we tested this out back in 2003/2004 and we were by no means the first team to try this... We actually built this because of what we had seen from other teams.
As for how it drives under weight, it actually drives pretty well, given that the weight is all centralized. It does take some getting use to in order to drive it, very little power, but very maneuverable.
