I would go even further and say always hate your robot. Keep breaking, iterating, and trying to figure out how to change the robot from week one of build season to champs. - saikiranra [more]

We had a similar experience with plaction as others did with W tread in 2014. The year was a bit of an outlier in terms of tread wear.

It's definitely worth mentioning what kind of tread you were using on the plaction wheels-- wedgetop, roughtop, blue nitrile, pebbled, etc all have different wear characteristics and CoF.
