Correct. But many FRC teams I know went to two regionals. But still, you save $5,000 on events but you still have to pay for 2 more nights of hotels and 2 more days of chartering a bus unless you leave near a regional site. So in the long run, you aren't really saving that much money, you have an even smaller chance for improvement throughout the season (less hours to work on robot between first event and World CMPS), you have less practice, and you have an even smaller chance of making it to World CMPS.
