Re: 6 wheel wide chassis - is there any advantage over just 4 wide?

A wider chassis would definitely be easier to turn, but in this year's game, balance is very important when getting over the barrier and the ramps, and a wide robot would be more susceptible of falling over backwards or forwards over those field elements.
