This year, for the first time since I've been involved with FIRST (12 years) we discussed car type steering briefly. For this game it might have an advantage in that you would have better precision when driving through holes in traffic than with tank type drives. The down side, as others have mentioned, is that you can't "turn in place" as with tank drive. Because of it's simplicity, I'm sure most teams will use tank drive this year, but will be practicing some different driving skills than for most previous FIRST games.
