a side question:  is there actually a way to hook up four independent motors on a NXT?  If I remember correctly there are only three motor ports (A, B, and C).
 
I've decided to not go with the EV3 for our team because I currently have three NXT controllers and two or three RCX controllers and I'm thinking our team will be aged out after next season.
 
Thanks,

Rule 4 – Equipment addresses motors, page 19 of the Challenge.    “MOTORS - You are allowed a maximum of four MINDSTORMS motors in the competition area. Choose your

favorite combination from among the LEGO-manufactured types shown here. No other motors are allowed.”   It shows both NXT and EV3 motors.  The NXT motors and sensors do work with the EV3.

I know we can use 4 Servo Motors this year when you are using EV3. Can you mix and match the Servo Motors that came in EV3 and old NXT Motors.

 

Is there any rule about this.
