With a few exceptions (111 @ MWR, 540 @ VCU, 175 @ BAE, and probably a couple others), the traditional "tank steering" drive has won every event. Although, this may be (at least in part) a bi-product of the vastly higher quantity of these drives.

Becuase now with all the power being put into drivetrains you need a solid way of connecting with the floor... high traction wheels and power will get you far in any years game.
