I was just at Watkins Glen (another NASCAR racetrack) last weekend, and I wish this was displayed then. That would have made my weekend if I could point out to the car and explain to my cousins exactly who was on the 16 car.

i wouldn't mind Overdrive 2.0 banked corners with a regolith surface. I am sure it would be a very exciting game to watch

+1 to this!

I would have to fight my team's engineers, but I would really push for Car Steer on our robot for that game.

Why fight? It worked out pretty well for you guys last year with regolith...

As in Lunacy? True :cool: but I was told by our driver from back then that he never really used the car steer, he pretty much always drove it like tank drive.

If you're talking about "Last Year" as in 2012, I wasn't on the team then, so I don't know about any regolith on our robot then. I haven't ever seen any. Nor was there any in 2013.

No, I was talking about 2009. I don't much know what you guys did in '12 or '13 since I stopped being up there and thus not involved. 09 you guys had 4 crab modules with 2 of them physically constrained into a psuedo ackerman. Every time I saw you drove it as tank drive...

The race starts at 1 EST today on ESPN, and this link seems like it will have a camera on the hood of the car. And for those of you not on Facebook, 3M Racing posted this on their facebook page today:
