Re: 8 MINI-CIM SWERVE
The opening line of this is...
"Would any one else like to see (8) MINI-CIM motors allowed so the swerves can be on par with the (6) CIM tank drives?"

Yes I would love to see swerve drives and tank drives get in meaningful skirmishes. However how would that effect other drive base interactions? I wouldn't want FRC to move to a point where it would be you either make an 8 MC swerve or 6 CIM Tank drive.
Lets be real here for a second though. Not all teams prioritize beast mode drive bases... Would 8 mini cim's on drive be equal to those extra mini cim's on scoring?
That question is entirely rule dependent and would differ from year to year. If suddenly FRC makes a no contact game then what?
Either way I think a major point we are all missing is that 8 mc's would make making an AT-AT more viable.
