Re: Hypothetical Situation - Stairs

if i was on a rookie team the way that i would do this is an 8wd with the 10 inch kit wheels. the middle two being drop center and rubber traction, the back one being a slick wheel, and the front being a 10 inch IFI wheel, i think the IFI wheel would hold up better with impacts and has a higher traction coefficient. 10 kit wheels will not fit in the 38 inches that we are given but if they are layed out like this:

XXXXXXXX.......................XXXXXXXXXX
..........XXXXXXXX.XXXXXXXXXXX


with the chain in between the two rows of wheels, then it would work.
