Last yr our team went with the binder.... one thing I have to say is, if you go that way, get real organized... our problem was we couldn't figure out which sheet went with which bot... or where each sheet was. If you can go electronic, I really suggest it. I think our team will probably be taking someone's pc to do all of the databasing..
One of the best tips I can give you is go out and talk to the teams, and be really nice. Bring some swag with you (we've found food works well) and just ask them about the different specs. One of the things you should try and think about is what they would be like as an ally and as an opponent. Think about different strategies you could use to win with that bot, but also how to counter those.
That's all I've got right now.
