Some teams won't touch #25 in the drive with the length of the overpass. They say it's too weak. It isn't, but if not done right, it can be. (The last time 330 used #25 on a robot was the second stage of their shooter wheel drive in 2006 going to the wheel. It was the first time since 2001, when contact was minimal and #25 was used in the drive. Later, we had a lot of problems with drive chains jumping while using 2001 as a practice bot.)
