Re: Best Form Of Six Wheel Drive?

With 6 traction wheels, a lot of robots have trouble turning without lowering their center wheels. However, certain teams (team 25 comes to mind) have such a powerful drivetrain that they can skid wheels when turning without a problem. I think they even went 8 wheels this year without anything lowered.
