We weren't really realistically looking for a 1lb bot. We are thinking crazy light, and if you don't need a control system (NXT), and just have a switch make it go, that reduces a lot of weight.
The reality of the rules is that one motor and one battery (the minimum requirements from the rules)weigh more than 1 lbs.

If you come to a FRC event to see a robot competition, you are missing the point.
