Is it made of Win?

I know 1625 has used it for years. Kinda expensive though don't you think?

Yeah, pure Win extract is the largest portion of our budget this season. It's been a little tough to find enough suppliers to sources us with the amount we need...

Wow looks like a beast robot, I see a swerve or ackerman, and a shooter?

Swerve and shooter, but what lies between?

well, there's probably going to be a collector at the front, a hopper of some sort (since the shooter's at the back I'm guessing it will be similar to 968's hopper in '06), and a conveyor system to convey balls to the shooter (polycord?)

Easy, just look at our 2006 robot. Can't blame you, it was quite a design :p

That might actually make some sense... I'm guessing Craig helped on that robot?

Erm. Flip it upside down, remove some unnecessary components, use lighter/more powerful belting, and make the entire system about 30 pounds lighter, and yeah, exactly! :D
