Perhaps a driving strategy might incorporate avoiding the area nearby the fueling station?
I agree with you on that. I did some strategy testing at the scrimmage hosted by 254, I sat in the center outpost and took some shots from there. Then in the one actual practice match we had I threw balls in from the corner fueling stations. I did pretty well at the center outpost, and I could throw the balls pretty much anywhere on the field, while in the practice match there was a large part of the match where I couldn't get a good shot from the corner fueling station because the trailers were on the other side of the field. I was fortunate just to be able to score one ball when that happened.
