If you have...you are dumb (no offense) it is not possible to make a very good robot in two weeks. Any smart team will take at least 4-5. As I have said before, being done first is not a good thing. If you are done: drive your robot into a wall at full speed, run things in ways they dont want to go, etc, When you do this, things will break for sure. When this happens, you can fix em. I know you cannot make the best robot for your team in two weeks no matter how good you are.

our field
 
Team 254 is not done yet. However, soon other teams will be allowed to use our field for practice. I think somebody sent out emails to the WRRF teams about signing up for time slots.

Well, we have a chassis with wheels attached, if that's what you mean. The motors and gearboxes are mounted too, but I wouldn't say the robot was 100% done.

Well there are already some schools that are done with their robot, and some of them actually look decent. I was more or less looking to see how far each team is in their building in our area.

"Sometime soon" is whenever Brandon approves them for public consumption... just like the FDA, and what they do.

Don't mean to sound pushy, I realize that it's almost 3am, here in California.

Meh. I should go to sleep soon.
