Re: 6 Wheel Drive - Rubber or Slick?

Remember that the easier it is for your robot to turn itself, the easier it is for other robots to turn you. The slicker your outside wheels, the quicker you will turn - at the cost of some pushing power (since the outside wheels touch the ground when you push) and the ability to "hold your ground" against somebody pushing the front or back of your bot sideways.
