And given their resources, I have little doubt they can pull it off. Im anxious to see how FRC evolves in Canada!
This isnt entirely true. You can build winning/successful 3rd robots year in and year out but it is only limited to the game. 2006 - yes, 2007 - yes, 2008 - yes, 2009 - no, 2010 - yes, 2011 - no, 2012 - yes. Thats 5 out of the last 7 years where a team could build a winning/successful 3rd alliance robot. So, depending on the type of game, one team could consistently build good bots that dont score; unless the year is a pure offense game like 2009 and 2011.
