if you were referring to our robot, we drove the robot full speed forward. regarding top heaviness, i've lifted the entire lifting mechanism (shaft connecting to chassis, gears, arm and gripper), and it can't weigh more than 25 pounds. well for the sides, never looked at that. i doubt that tipping over will be a problem for our robot, but only robots on the opposing alliances! >=D
