I didnt make any statement about Mecanum, i only asked if any big name teams used mecanums, and implied mecanums IN competition. I am still correct that 148 did not use mecanums in competition, right?
I guess i understand how one might interpret my statement as they havent bothered to try; that was not the intent. Rather, i was just curious for historical information.

P.S. There's really no point in arguing this guys; if this was battlebots, sure, argue away. But in a competition where there are many other aspects besides drivetrains that critically define your success, no.

P.P.S. You guys may disagree completely with me, and i'm not looking to make this an argument; however, i believe 100% that 254, 111, and 973 still would have won it all if they all had Mecanum drive trains.
