The Triple Helix Mobile, making it loud
 
What better way to "make it loud" than with a car themed for your robotics team? With a thumping custom audio system, of course...

Very entertaining!

How trashy would it look to wrap an AMG in zebra stripes? :cool:

Wrap the Porsche instead. More trashy.

Todd,
Very impressive car.

Maybe you should join these guys and go for the real triple helix!

Was the 2363 licence plate taken?

This is incredible! What a creative way to spread awareness of FIRST.

Is this a personal vehicle or a team vehicle?

Obviously both. Haven't you heard of the Matt Lythgoe Foundation? They get other people to donate to it and then pay for things like Rumble in the Roads and vinyl wraps.

It's really a money laundering front, the real business is just gifs all the way down

I know FRC 2363 was taken because that format is actually the normal Virginia plate format (3 letters followed by 4 numbers). I am not sure about just 2363 though.

Cool car, Todd. Are you sure you won't lose it in the supermarket or Home Depot parking lot?

It would be really cool if they made this part of the field as the way for getting robots from one side to the other

Unrelated to the car, but related to Making it Loud (sort of)...

We rented official FIRST field for Beach Blitz this past weekend, and on the underside of a Cheval de Frise, there was a Triple Helix sticker. :eek:

You were at Beach Blitz in spirit.

Personal vehicle. So far all mods are reversible, except maybe the wiring for the audio system.

I previously had a black car, and it was way too hot in the Virginia summers. I planned to get a white or silver one, but my wife said that was boring and too hard to spot in a parking lot. Yellow was the lightest "color" available. It wasn't until I got it home that I realized it needed to become a Triple Helix themed car.

During the field setup of the District Championship, we volunteered to do the labor of swapping out all the obsolete flip-flop ramps for the new improved design. Since we were doing the work, we slapped stickers on the underside of one ramp per defense. We were hoping we might see that field at CMP, but never found it. Good to hear it's still in use.

It is a very nice team vehicle but I wonder if the towing capacity is sufficient...;)
