Drivetrain Reference Tables - 2008

I'm looking at the drivetrain reference tables provided in the KOP. Since we do not have a rug avaliable to test our autonomous mode we have to resort to calculating it beforehand as best we can and then modifying it at the competition.

The table lists the COF (coefficient of friction) for a variety of wheels. Is this the COF for the wheels on the rug such as the one that will be used at the regionals or is it something else?

If it isn't related can anyone give me pointers as to how I should go about calculating how far we will go in autonomous when we are on the competition rug? (ie: calculate for it on a smooth surface then add 5 feet to it, etc.)
