Re: Is there a place this year for robots that cant hurdle?
A fast lap runner will run into traffic with 5 other robots and/or up to 4 balls on the field. A ferrari in traffic is no faster than a big rig truck. **extreme case** That's the disadvantage they will have.
Hurdlers will still be able to go around the track.
But the reverse scenarios cant happen.
IMO, that puts hurdlers at an advantage.
HOWEVER, there are levels of performance on how well teams can hurdle (speed and efficiency) which will affect outcome of matches.
During teleop period, the question will be, "Can a team hurdle at least once while a lapper runs around the track four times?"
Autonomous is the key.
