Re: Best amount of sprocket teeth

2 CIM's can be very effective. My team's rookie year (2007), we were highest rookie seed, and one of the more effective defensive bots. You don't need to have a ton of pushing force to be a good bot (offensive or defensive).

4CIM's is no doubt going to produce a stronger drivetrain.

Everything is a trade off. 4 CIM drivetrain=more pushing ability, but no CIMs are available for other purposes. 2 CIM drivetrain=not pushing anybody around the field, but those 2 motors are freed up to work elsewhere.

I won't even get into 2009 where less was actually more.
