Raul. Team 237 had machined wheels that were notched to take a piece of double sided timing belt, we had great traction for most of the game we played but found that as the wheels skidded from pushing and climbing we polished the surfaces so that we lost a little push power.
Changing the belt every 4 games fixed the problem.

: I remember seeing a couple of teams that had a really good wheel tread that was claimed to provide superior traction on the typical FIRST carpet. I remember one team had a beautifully machined aluminum wheel with a drive belt that they used as the treads that looked awesome. I cannot remember the team number.

: Does anyone know what I am talking about? I would like to know what the belt was and where I can find it so we can do some experiments.

: Raul
