MMM shiny. I would strongly recommend you cover up as much of it as possible if you want it to stay that way through the build season

kinda reminds me of parts of our '03 bot, colorwise. Too bad that paint can come off so easy...

This is our first painted robot so we pulled out all the stops! Well by painted I mean not with spray paint. :)

it is powdercoat... it doesnt weigh much... we didnt weigh the chassis before/after we painted it... the overall frame weighs about 20 pounds, without the plates..

we had that thought too but i came up with a major problem with that. if you get on the goal and another robot comes and keeps you on the goal you are stuck for at least for 13 seconds, due to the 10 sec. pin rule then they get 3 seconds away then you are allowed to pin again for 10 seconds. other then that if you thought of it then good luck this year and i hope to see ya at a competition! good luck!

i also that you will use some sort of traction grippy stuff to adhere to your wheels. what stuff is that and how will you manage to keep it on the wheel? thats what we have a probem with right now.
