I feel From what i have seen over the years is technology of the robots has gone up alot from 2000 to now. i feel that the biggest change in First history would be the change in 2005 with the 3 on 3, this change to add another partner, gave teams a chance to be carried. plus you had more to worry about with 3 other robots to face and along with 2 other robots to not crash into. also the games have been more thinking about what other teams are going to do besides playing your own game. the Drive trains will get better and stronger and along more robust. my ideas with companies that offer some premade gearboxes, or wheels helps out teams that don't have enough money or have a lack of engineering support. i know from this year we lost our sponor and the engineering to go with the company and Andymark gearboxes helped us when the banebot plates started to warp on us.
