Taking your eyes off the robot to keep checking for a lock = bad.

Not even remotely legal. Remember though that the OI has LED outputs available on some of the joystick ports - but you can only draw 10ma of current from them.
Another consideration is that the competition venues are extremely noisy and it might be very difficult to hear a buzzer or sound.
Calculate everything. You won't need to make speed holes if you figure it all out beforehand and get it taken care of. - Otaku [more]
