This is a background that was created by Aidan Solala '12 of team 610's 2011 robot.

A lot of team members use it for various backgrounds.

It's not a full robot, but I thought this picture I took of a gearbox I made turned out pretty well.
The inspiration from 254 is obvious, even in how the picture was taken!

I would very much like to hear the story behind this...

I've heard the Poofs machine their wheels late in the season....sometimes very late. Never heard the full story either though.

As far as pictures go - 2008 picture of RAWC is by far my favorite.

We have a large stockpile of wheels from previous seasons, so usually the exact dimensions and interface of wheel we want to use is available for testing/practicing. As such, we only need to manufacture the competition-legal ones just in time to compete, since they're pretty light and easily fit within the witholding allowance.

Karthik was pretty disgusted last year when I told him at a Week 3 regional we were both attending that we hadn't started manufacturing any wheels yet.

One of my favorites:

There are quite a few nice shots on 118's website, but they're not high-res enough for a desktop. Great for a phone though!

Here's a picture of our 2012 robot. It stands out pretty well against the sea of metal robots. :D
