It has been very interesting to see all of these teams sliding around the field. These drivetrains are very good but they require some very skilled drivers to operate.
384, 1086, and 540 (the West Henrico Triad) actually used Mecanum, not crab.
With a few exceptions (111 @ MWR, 540 @ VCU, 175 @ BAE, and probably a couple others), the traditional "tank steering" drive has won every event. Although, this may be (at least in part) a bi-product of the vastly higher quantity of these drives.
