It really depends on how much weight you need for your scoring device. If your scoring device this year consisted of two lightweight plastic ramps, and you had 80 lbs. available for a monster drive train, it probably paid off to put extra motors and reinforcement in the drive system.

The same could be said for triple play, where all you needed to play the game successfully was a simple one-jointed arm without a manipulator.

But in general: drivetrain + electronics < 60 lbs. so... um... I'd vote: :yikes:
