Rookies have to draw on the experience of local veteran teams.
For the record, I had a list ready before it was requested, based on the released videos and the "complaints" last time. No rookies this time, though I was tempted.

Eric:I just dont think rookies get the credit they deserve, I mean, I saw(and still see) lots or great looking rookie teams out there,
experience in good building and engineering practices definitaly helps, but as far as actually playing the game, this year, I think everyone really does have just as good a chance as anyone else
you could have a great robot, but if you cant play the game you wont get that far(i think everyone saw this 2005 and 2008)...
