We based our octocanum on your design for this year, and it's the most successful, awesome drivetrain we've ever built.

Thanks again!

Wow, I guess this should push us over the edge and get to work on this. Man, I'm kicking myself for not prototyping so we could have used it this year.

I could probably guess due to your absolute love, but did you encounter any serious side loading during competition? (That will save Madison from needing to bother so she can go work on her next bit of magic!)
