Hokie Hokie Hokie Hi.

Good to see Virginia Tech doing well, and finishing AHEAD of MIT, Cornell, and many others.

Congrats Victor Tango! I had a chance to meet these guys in June. Some very cool people and someone you should talk to if you ever get the chance. I was able to ride in the vehicle through a closed course. I was very impressed with the performance.

Grats to Tech!
While down in Blacksburg for a robotics course at tech, we were launching eggs via air cannon in one of their huge parking lots. We were having a blast watched eggs explode but that all ended when the DARPA team pulled up. They gave us a rundown of their vehicle and spent 30 minutes answering our questions. A very nice bunch of folks. I'm glad to see they did so well!

Unfortunately, I can't say that I know anyone in that photo. Quite frankly, 401 hasn't had any experience with the DARPA guys. Maybe we should do something about that...:rolleyes:
