Here is a link to a video of them in competition, which is definitely worth a watch, ideally in HD. It's almost unbelievable how naturally and smoothly it drives.

Well, good luck on whatever you do build!
I believe the answer to my question lies in the swerve drive of 1717. Not only was that extremely fast and maneuverable, but it was some of the smoothest driving I've seen to date, even giving the Cheesy Poofs a run for their money this year! Anyone have any specs on that drive train?
