It would eliminate the issue of people cheating by building while the robot is supposed to be bagged. It would also negate the benefit that well funded teams get by building a practice bot.

If they were to change the length of the season, I would want it to be shorter. ~4 weeks or so. Robot in 3 Days kinda shows that. (Yes I understand those people are very experienced and have good resources etc.)

I also don't think you even need pneumatic tires. We are using VexPro 8" traction tires.
