Looks like one of Raul's creations finally turned on him.
Can't wait to see the whole robot at the Championship.

That is unsafe.

Yeah, Raul, you should probably have safety glasses on while being eaten alive by your robot.
(looks great, btw)

It was only a matter of time...

I hope the other robots don't get the same idea.

I knew there was tie-dye coming. ;)
Was he too loud? *cringe*
-q :]
Nah, Wildstang 2007 (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/27192) is controlling Wildstang 2009. I don't know what Raul did to warrant this treatment...

This configuration should make it a lot easier for them to lose weight at Midwest this year:P

Actually, we were well under weight for the first time since 2003. 10 pounds under. We started adding more lexan to add some weight - still 5 pounds under. I will probably add a hood ornament or mascot to get it up to 119.9.

Same here. We actually just realized we shipped the robot without getting a final weight...that's never happened before.

Just leave 5 pounds of body parts in there, you'll be fine :D

You mean you won't be drilling this year? You mean you will be leaving the bot alone and be relaxing in the stands?
The world is gonna crack.

Come on Bill, it would be true Lunacy for me to relax in the stands - I would be the one to crack. No, I will be frantically trying to add weight in a sensible way. You know - just trying to add some functionality to keep up with 71, 16, 217, 1114, etc. I got 5 pounds to play with - wow!

5 pounds is more than enough to add an LED display that states "1114 would just be 4 without 111," "Beatty Least," and other witty comments.

I'd reccomend going old school and add the rotating light. We've always wanted to have the weight for it on a 177 bot.

I know just before ship we were about 15 pounds under weight. Last year we added a 8 pound weight in the back of the robot.
we are going to find some way to use the extra weight to our advantage.

I will probably add a hood ornament or mascot to get it up to 119.9. Normally, hood ornaments go on TOP, not underneath. Are you now a mascot??:D

5 pounds under?!? No more swiss-cheesing at Midwest?!?
Anyway, looks great, guys. I spy some familiar components on the robot, and I can't wait to see the whole thing. I'll be watching the Midwest webcast - don't disappoint! And Raul, I guess you are always up to your usual antics...

1038 working on keeping our MOJO calm and collective, unlike Wildstang 09.

I apologize for the big pics.
First time underweight since 2003.
Last Wildstang World Championship 2003...
Hmmm - there must be something to this simple and underweight thing.

I'm printing this out and bringing it to next year's brainstorming sessions when you propose we build a crab base and a 5 jointed arm that extends to 15' tall.

Hey! You gotta let the rest of us win sometime too, you know!:P
