Only 12 teams out of over 2,000 made it to Einstein this year. Lots of quality teams with 6WD and 8WD didn't make it either. A well done drivetrain of any type is just one part of a total robot / program that is required.

Good luck is also required. For example, one could argue that 148 suffered from a qualifying schedule that was too easy. They were third seed because their opponents didn't put up enough points. Had they been first seed, the entire alliance selection on Newton would have gone down differently - but this is nothing more than a bit of bad luck.
