Re: pic: off season chassis
Interesting, I think this wheel configuration would be handy in a way. If you ended up pinned, you could shift CG and slip out of it in a lot of cases. My old team designed mechanisms to make the robot 'slippery' in '09 and it worked fantastically. If you can shift CG and need to escape pinning this could be viable.
