Speaking from personal experience, this can, in fact, win you a GP award. Back in 2007, my team then, 114, built one of the rookies at the PNW regional a robot cart out of castors and a piece of plywood. Not sure how the judges heard about it, but we won the J&J Sportsmanship Award.
In summary: Do good.
