Re: pic: 1323's Completed Bot

why are you using so many wheels?

we couldn't find any real advantage, since adding wheels will displace the weight of the robot and not add any more traction

I FREAKING LOVE YOUR JACKET MAN!!!!!!!!
(Guns n' Roses for the win)
And i didnt know you can have more than 4 wheels (i assume there are six, and that one is hiding behind the robot. camera shy little wheel. give it some special attention and it might come out for a photo )
