Re: Drive System treds/tracks

My rookie year, which also was my old teams founding year we used tank treads with the v-guide and it work beautifully. WHen i was on the team in the past we discussed going back to tread but we didnt becasue we wanted to try something new. Example: 2003 front wheel stearing. My suggestion if you are going to do it do it right and it will work how its suppose to.

Edit: I forgot to say if you are going with the treads make sure that the rest of the robot is light, treads take up alot of weight. Thats why are 2001 robot was nicknamed "swiss cheese" because of all the speed holes
