Killer Carts!
 

No, I'm not talking about carts that have injured people, but the carts at nationals. Some of them had stereo systems, or were motor driven, or had pneumatic pieces. I wanted to start this forum to have people show photos of their awesome carts.

I am still waiting to see a trailer hitch attachment to a Segway, Dean! :D

best cart, imo, belongs to 94 technojays.. by far.. there were alot of carts that had pumped up bass and sound systems, but 94 was awesome with a mini pick up truck and a place for the driver in it as well.

I believe the carts were to be added to the crate picture gallery.

I also remembered this thread mentioning photos of carts and to add them to the crate gallery http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...t=26233&page=3
Photos should at least be uploaded to the "Extra Discussion Forum" and not the "General Forum".

Yah, we gave them our "Best Cart" Award. Was it 1305 that had the cool diamond-plated forklift? That was cool too! I also think that the cart with blue light, stereo with nice bass and DVD was awesome and it sounded nice (what # were they)?

548, if I remember correctly.

I appologize for my mistake.

Re: Killer Carts!
 

That was ours (548)! Thanks for the compliments. Saturday evening after the team party(we couldn't afford to go...) we took the cart out to the park, near the fountains, and had a dance party until the park closed. Then we took it back, and continued the party outside our hotel. Several teams showed up there, including 71(the winners), and we had a great time there, until the cops shut us down for being too loud... :cool:

Teams in Michigan, we are considering renting the cart out for graduation parties, etc... contact me at joshjv@yahoo.com if you are interested.

Re: Killer Carts!
 

Our team is already talking about our next year's cart. We plan on having spinners, etc. Too bad we won't actually do it.

Re: Killer Carts!
 

I thought team 548 Northville Robostangs looked very good.

Re: Killer Carts!
 

Our cart was awesome this year, i dont have any pictures but it was basically the most macked out radio flyer ever. 300 watt stereo, orange and blue flames and just worked awesome for transporting the bot, i have had alot of crappy carts and this is def the best just as a cart, then it had added stuff on, next year we will work on it for more than a Day so it will even be MORE macked out.

Re: Killer Carts!
 

More info about our cart...
This is taken from the flyer we were passing out at Nationals, though it doesn't look as good here...

Re: Killer Carts!
 

So thats who it was who had the mini pick-up/semi. I was wondering who it was for the whole week. I first saw it out of the corner of my eye when I was watching a match. That was the koolest cart in my opinion.

Re: Killer Carts!
 

175 BUZZ had a beautiful cart. I dunno if there are pictures of it, but it was extremely well built and functional. No sound systems or anything but it epitomized to me what the perfect robot cart would be. With a scissor lift, cabinets, duel pneumatic castors, shelves, really nice paint and graphics. If there were money to be made in this competition, I bet a cart like that would go for 15-20k. (and a great bot to go with it)

our cart was pretty cool....diamond plate, drawers, neons and a stereo

Re: Killer Carts!
 

Oh yah! I love the look of diamond plate and blue light. This year our team tried to make a cool shipping crate that unfolded into our pit are (with drawers, neon light, diamond playe, strobe light and stereo). Our cart was possibly the worst one there (a green garden cart). We are plannig on making a pimped out cart for next year.
