We are. you have a choice of two drive systems this year. tank or swerve, everything else is a waste of time(maccanum, omni).

a tank with treads will be the easiest way to deal with defenses, but will suffer compared to swerve since it can't move sideways. this may or may not be desirable depending on what your game strategy is. We plan on scoring balls in the high goal so to be able to precisely aim and out maneuver any potential defensive robot, swerve is the choice for us. If you plan on being a defense tackling robot than your choice is probably better served by tank.

Most tanks will suffer due to how their frame is setup though(KOP chasis included). so you still need to put a lot of work into making sure you can properly navigate the obstacles
