Well, yes.
Team 71 did it in 2002 (they're the robot coming in from the left), and that robot became one of the most famous in FRC history.
And, in addition to leveling the playing field, it could also rip it up, literally. With the huge requirement on traction that year, many teams (especially 71) ended up tearing the carpet pretty badly. FIRST changed the rules on what could be used for traction devices the following year.
