Can you connect more than 6 iPads so the driveteam can have access to the data?

If you want the drive team to get the data (which is exactly what my team will be doing), you should utilize the sharing on the "More" page. This will allow any party to send another every ounce of their recorded data (Pit scouting included).
The connection made on the "Scoring" page is for more of a non-obstructive way of real-time sharing so that all six scouts (Red 1, Red 2, etc) don't have to do anything different to get matches to send to one another.
As for advice, I noticed that the bluetooth connection API that I utilize in the app does not work once an iPad is put to sleep. So, big tip: Keep your iPads plugged in and put the auto-sleep timer to max if not off. (You can turn down your brightness if you're terribly concerned about battery life as well)
Thank you for the compliment! I heard from a Team Driven alumnus that the app was quite a hit at Crossroads this last weekend as well. I'm so glad it's helping everyone!
