This wasn't entirely true. There were a few teams that I drove against that year (25 and 2753 come to mind) that had 12 wheels in their drive trains versus our 6 and they had noticeably more pushing power than we did, and could also out accelerate us. I'm not sure what caused this, I always theorized that the carpet under the Regolith may have had some effect on the amount of Friction, but never cared much to test it once the season was over.
