Re: pic: Drilled out gears

I'll agree with Dave. We had drive sprockets last year and took a little too much off. They broke in post season with more events to go, so we had to replace them.So I'd say that if you must lighten a gear, do it a little at a time, preferably only if you are over weight or planning to be (in which case, the robot will start looking like swiss cheese).
