BTW: a rat race, I believe, was intended not ballistic minibots. The GDC has a vision of what the game will look like. I'm sorry they didn't have the same idea as you did.
What I meant to say is that should an FRC team not registered for FTC plan on participating in an FTC game? It is an honest statement. I understand that we are all FIRST teams, but all I have to ask is WHY? It will just be "fun" watching 4 robots drive up a pole and see who makes it up the fastest. Hey, we can place bets each match!
