Right now we have modes to skip the first RC altogether if another alliance partner is going to be going for it, but even with that we are pressed for time as well during auto mode. If you'll notice, our arm is ready to lift the 4th RC at the end of auto mode so our drivers can pull that one over. THe 4th one doesn't come over to our side during auto mode.

Slow & steady is our key factor here.

Can it only do auto in one direction? Or can it start from the other side of the field and just drive backwards?
