I remembered an observation I made last night before I went to bed.

Traction Control is not as important is many make it. Or at least not at this level. Yesterday we had no issues major traction issues and I found the field to have a bit more grip than I anticipated.

It seemed like a lot of teams put improper emphasis on Traction Control and it slows the 'bots down a lot. I think that was why many of the matches went as slow as they did yesterday. Don't get me wrong a good traction control system will win you matches but a bad one is it's own hell.

Also a trick I learned is to always keep the trailer moving and swinging. This, for one thing, makes it harder for your opponent to track it but also add as certain degree of maneuverability if you can swing it correctly. The second the trailer comes to a dead stop driving becomes twice as hard.
