Yes, but 118 as far as I know has always done their coaxial swerves with all four wheels driven by a single gearbox, which doesn't allow for rotating the base, hence why they always have a turreted scoring mechanism. My guess is that poofs/rawc will be doing two gearboxes, improving (if its physically possible) their 2 speed from last year. I just don't see the poofs with a turreted scoring mechanism, doesn't seem like their style. This is all speculation of course, we may see something totally different from the poofs this year, even more so than we have already...
