My team's 4 motor drive dragged a 190 pound student around on his stomach.

www.startateam.com/639 for a video, we weight more though so

Our robot Dorothy requires 2 Drill motors for drive and i think a window motor for a tether. she managed to pull 2 goals in a straight line but had a problem turning. one of the many problems we had with our drivetrain. next year will be a tranny with hopefully a stronger motor then the chalupa / drill motor
