Why are you using RCA wins as an indicator of regional robot competitiveness? Wouldn't a more accurate reading show only regional wins? Couldn't you take it a slice deeper and show Regional Champions and Regional Finalists?
Nothing against the RCA, but the fact that a team wins that award doesn't seem to be an indicator to me that they are tougher to beat on the field.
It would be fantastic if someone (with more time than me) would run the data for all the regionals checking for Regional Champions, & Regional Finalists. I bet this data would help someone create a more accurate picture.
