 You know those gravitational waves you keep hearing about recently? Those weren't created by colliding black holes, they were created by our boulders colliding with the opposing alliance's tower. - JohnFogarty [more] |

Re: 4 vs 6 wheels
Aother option for 6WD (or 8) is to elevate all center wheels so that they only come into play when crossing the bump. By having them elevated, you don't get the traction benefit on flat ground, but you can eliminate the "high centering" while still reducing the angle that the chassis must reach while crossing the bump - you go over smoother and are less likely to tip because you don't rock forward so much when coming off the top of the bump.
