Should I join robotics again or not?

Back when I was a freshman and sophomore, I used to be on the Falcon Robotics team (team 842), but I got out junior year because it didn't really feel the same. I also didn't feel very welcome by some of the people, and I also had to sustain duties at the computer club at my school making sure they run. Its going to be my senior year now, and I'm trying to wonder if I should join again or not. I've taken engineering school 7th and 8th grade summers and have a good idea of gear trains and stress points and what not. I'm superb with computer hardware and do some coding in Visual Basic and Java. I get most of my hardware knowledge from computer club, and from first-hand experience repairing video game systems and computers. I'm also highly disciplined in driving, since I've played a bunch of racing sims. Just give me a bit to get used to a robot's drivetrain, and I can show anyone what I can do.
