i do not agree that your team would be looked down upon. i believe that i, if not many other people in FIRST, would be impressed with a good driver no matter what the age. in fact, we might just be wowed by such a young driver.
i agree that driver skill and knowledge are more important than anything (besides participation). you might have an excellent driver, that didn't lift a finger during the season, and does not deserve to drive.
if you are arguing about it, pull out the robot, set up an obstacle course, have things thrown unexpectedly in front of the robot, and see who handles it best. may the best man (or woman) drive. but do not discriminate on the basis of age.
