Starting new team, need suggestions...

I've been thinking a lot about batteries in the last couple of weeks. Do not let the ratio of one battery to one automobile color your thinking on how many you need. I think you need at least four to be reasonably certain you can get decent performance from whatever machine you make. Take care of them by not overworking the one in use just because you're having fun. If you're going to have an hour of practice driving time, don't let any of your four batteries work for more than 15 minutes before getting them hooked up to your charger.

sorry - too detailed? You came to the right place for help with FRC. One of your first responses to an FRC-related question, technical or otherwise, should be "let's look and see what's on C D."
