Respectfully Dale... since 1998-9 when our combined team split into 3,

each developing perennially highly effective & successful teams:

207 294 330
Seriously, has to be the most successful set of teams coming from the same home program. 4 World Championships, Countless Regional Wins, and a few Chairman's for starters.

Make that 5 World Championships ? (I believe) 2 ea for 294 & 330 1 for 207)

Question to any 330 members in the audience: Do you guys do astronaut level training or something? Throw 5 different problems at the drivers at once and see how they handle it? Or maybe... Maybe the drivers are robots too! 330 was bored with the standard FRC challenge and decided to up their game with robot drivers.
It is my honest opinion that 330 has the best drivers in all of first. I was lucky enough to drive with them at the 2015 Ventura Regional, the composure and skill shown by there drivers was nearly unbelievable. Happy to see them win, they deserve it.

Nope, it's 4. 207 took home the Finalist back in '12 as I recall. Still looking for that elusive Champs win.



There's also a couple of Division Winners from 330 ('07 and '15), not sure about 294.

We (207) made it to finals in 2012, but no championship wins (yet). We've won 3 EI and 1 CA to date. Going off of one of Joe Ross' posts from a few years ago, I believe that 330 also has an award winning streak of 17 years and 207 has a streak of 15

I'm really happy that this came up; I might be biased, but it's definitely my favorite tidbit of FRC history :rolleyes:

I wonder if they designed their robot with the intention of being able to get back up when they fell over.
They definitely seem to have practiced it -- to execute the maneuver that flawlessly twice can't possibly be unpracticed.

330 was skunked awardwise in 2013, on top of coming up short against 1717 short of the finals in both of their regionals. The current streak is 3 years, so the previous would have been 13 years (if my quick math is right).



330 does try to have some self-righting features if possible, but they usually serve some other purpose (like scoring points). I'm pretty sure that self-righting isn't practiced, though...

294 had a 12 year consecutive award streak that was snapped in 2015. This included 2 EI and 1 CA. We also have 2 Divisional wins to go with our 2 championships... Plus countless regional finalists..
I have been meaning to run the data as we have so many silver medals (always finishing 2nd to 330!) that we were beginning to wonder if 294 has the most silver medals in FRC... Always the bridesmaid!

And also Major Props to Shane passing down his knowledge to Zac! Amazing driving man! Perhaps you guys can give a little talent to our driver next year!!!
