Couldn't agree with you more, coming from a team that many would consider good (27) I can tell you that those kids put in a ton of work. Find one of them at competition and ask for their schedule. Yes, their hours are scheduled. Some of them are never allowed to leave the pits or the stands. Being good requires hard work and dedication. There is a quote from Bill Gates about this:

You have to work for success so stop complaining about teams that are dedicated and reap the rewards.
