That's a good name. This is definitely one of my favorite bots already.

We appreciate all the suggestions we got for names! The team loved the idea of a natural disaster theme and a huge list was put together (with potential names for years to come). Solar Flare managed to beat out popular names like Zesty Beast and Zoidberg (why not?). Thanks again and we look forward to seeing everyone at competition!

Edit: I felt I should explain the Zesty Beast name. We use lemon scented Pledge on our robot to keep the ramp clean, slippery, and fresh. :)

We've used turtle wax for the last two years to make nice things slide. :rolleyes:

I'd much prefer lemon scent. ;)
