Re: Limit team $

I would argue that only the robot expenses give teams an advantage and that is capped at $4000.

Does the team who flies to an event have a strategic advantage over a team who takes a school bus or carpools? How about the team that has to get hotel rooms and uniforms for 50+ students vs. the team with 10-15 students? What about off-season community service events? There are numerous other examples of where a team may spend more money without gaining any strategic advantage.
