We were good in strong last year but was as strong as are track could hold. The Breco flex tracks do rip apart under high loads.

I think the best way of getting the most traction is by a track system. but it will take years of proving different design to come up with one that works.

Traction is good but a good driver will always win over a good robot.

I agree that a good driver always helps more than good traction/good robot. Since this year's competition will probably require more manuverability, the driver will be even more important.
