D. Gregory is an unknown quantity at this point

Wouldn't weight be a problem with 4 boxes? We aren't really looking to closely at shifting due to the complexity. Also, if you have a different box for each wheel wouldn't you get 4 slightly different speeds from your wheels. Even with mathematically correct gear ratios, you will obviously get slightly different speeds from different motors.
