Standard Drivetrain Comparison

[spiffyspleen]

As I was watching the best football team in the NFL win the super bowl last night , I was thinking about all the debate that has gone on in these forums between different types and iterations of drive trains. It came to me that there should be a quantitative way to compare these drive trains. There would be different categories which each drive train would be ranked in. These categories would be weighted differently for different games(i.e. in last years game incline climbing ability was very important but this year it is useless). There would also be an overall score which would be all of the categories added up and weighted in some way.
Here are some categories I have come up with so far:

Weight(different weight ranges could receive different amounts of points)

Speed

Agility(time to complete some sort of a simple obstacle course with cones)

Pushing Power( This would be a hard one to test, I was thinking it could be the amount of weight it could push on carpet, but then everyone has to have something with the same coefficient of friction)

Motors Needed

Pneumatic Cylinders needed

Obviously this is just an idea right now, so I would really appreciate the help of more experienced FIRST Participants in refining it. I am sure that there are a lot of things that I haven't thought of. If we could actually create a standard comparison between drivetrains though, I think it would help reduce a lot of confusion and be a lot of help to teams trying to choose a drivetrain. Thanks for your help, and GO PACK
