Technical Questions, Rules

About the wheels -- I heard an idea that you could use gears as wheels. Any amount, any size of gear means you can use any size of wheels, as long as they are "gears"? Don't need to order skyway wheels or make them, just use gears?

What is the criterion for wheels? What is a wheel, what isn't, etc?

Traction -- our team has figured out how to get enough power to push the heavy goal using something called a planetary gear system (don't ask me, I don't know : ). How are you guys dealing with traction? We had an idea to use sandpaper. Using sandpaper as some sort of "belt" -- what is a "belt"?

What is the criterion for a belt? What is a belt? Or maybe treads would be a better word. What are treads?

For the motors, is it possible to use ANY 12 VDC motor? What is the criterion for "Drill Motor", which is 12 V?

Thanks for all the help. Don't kill me if you see this message twice, someone called Martin is posting for our team too.
