By "work" I think he's referring more to the inability of a long wheelbase 4wd robot to turn on carpet. Any team that's ever had a 4wd robot drive great on their school's vinyl floors, only to get to competition and find that they can't turn well, if at all. A 6wd dropped center would fare much better, as Dan mentioned.
