Re: tank drive in this years game
I am becoming increasingly convinced that people are underestimating the tried 'n' true skid steer bot this year. All indications I've seen from those who have tried it with the rover wheels are that turning and moving aren't really problems.
Will a crab drive give better performance? Sure - it always has and always will. But the drive system style is dwarfed by strategy, driving ability, and scoring function when it comes to who gets to stand in the winner's circle. Some teams have the resources to make a crab drive to go along with an excellent robot in other areas. Others don't. I am not convinced that you will see any more crab drives hoisting blue banners than in other years.
