Yeah, I was watching the webcast and thought that the 48 on the bumper was upside down. I wasn't sure if it was just the poor quality of the webcast or if it was actually upside down. I think it adds some character to the robot.

Last year in Atlanta someone put our front bumper on upside down in the pit right as one team was going around taking pictures for a scouting sheet they gave to all the teams in the division. So, every team must have thought we were idiots that couln't put our bumper on the right way...

Good luck at the rest of your regionals and hopefully we get to play with you again in Atlanta.

Yeah Kinda, We kinda borrowed his "48" and it is a racing themed game.

You should definitely use your robot and your team number to get sponsorship from Lowe's.

Could go even further and get NASCAR involved in general. They would LOVE this year's game for sure :D

Delphi/Delphi Motorsports actually has complicated agreements with Hendrick/NASCAR. I contacted corporate requesting inquiry into pursuing some kind of contact/partnership/assistance from Hendrick/Lowe's Racing/etc. Because of the complexity of existing agreements, they recommended we make no attempts to muddy the waters. Not even for free bumper stickers - awwwww.

Now if FIRST wanted to approach NASCAR on their own - heck I'd be all for that. Kinda too late now.

I remember wishing you guys made your arm look like the cannon on a tank... the angles on the cover for the base of your robot look like an abrams!

-q

p.s. "ALWAYS REMEMBER..." What are we supposed to always remember? (see pic) :]

(Some might wish it to say - "READ THE Q/A!!") :rolleyes:

But in reality, it said - and this should come as no surprise - "SAFETY FIRST!"
