If I remember correctly, 25 had their climb and dump working in Vegas (not sure if everything actually worked together, but it was all there) the week before the MAR Championship.

103 - Good scoring machine that has potential to run center line auto. Can also climb for 20 and dump.

Personally, I think given the opportunity, I'd go with 1640 over 103. 103 is definitely good, but I'm not sure if their style of play would compliment the FCS/Floor Loader Combination well. As I play through a 1640/225/341 scenario in my head, I just see it coming out very well. 1640's to navigate the field quickly and efficiently would leave more than enough space for both 225 and 341 to do what they need to do - and if 225 were to be blocked and/or defended, 1640 is more than strong enough to make up some of the offensive gap - not to mention that they have the ability to feed a floor loader from the opposite end of the field.
