First off, welcome to Chief Delphi.

Now on to the question:
Considering that the FRC game hasn't come out, what makes you believe that there will be terrain. The reason I ask is that the best drivetrain is the one that does the job, and since we don't yet know what the task is ... well that makes designing a drivetrain difficult.

I might suggest that you search CD (middle of orange navigation bar at the top of this page) for drive trains to get an idea of whats typically buildable by a FIRST team. Then start strategizing from there.
