Up the Ramp

Hey guys I just got back from the St Louis regional where our team faired ok only due to alot of help from other teams. But one problem tht came up with us many times was the fact that our robot would only make it over the ramp in "auto" mode and would never make it up or over in normal driver mode. Why is that, it's stumped us for the past 48 hours.

Our team (940) ran 2 Chippy's with a 10 tooth gear on the motor going to a 60 tooth gear on the front wheel. The tires are the "Skyway Tuff wheels" 8.5 inch on the front and small casters on the back.

Any idea why only auto will get us up the ramp?????????
