If 8 tubes are scored by a single robot during a qualifying/elimination match at any event this season I will eat my shoe. Was there a robot that ever scored 8 tubes in a single match during Rack'n'Roll?
Watching the Suffield Scrimmage, 1519 and 126 had a hard time putting up 5 tubes between them. The traditional CD recognized 'top tier' might be more competitive, but they are certainly not 4 times better.
Certainly it is a handicap, but I do not think it is an insurmountable one (especially at the regional level).
