"SAFE. That's what the car says. WHO, I repeat, WHO, thought that putting me in this car without my SAFETY GLASSES would be SAFE????"

It's a good thing he's not his team's driver!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #379
 
Man, the 2004 season was brutal w/o bumpers.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #379
 
This is a metaphor for why you don't let freshmen drive the robot.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #379
 
This robotics group really is like Battlebots!

Some teams will take drastic measure to get their robot to fit inside of the box.

A classic example of why FRC limits robots to 120 lbs!

Code's compiling!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #379
 
This picture of a robot without bumpers needs no Caption.

Frenchie461 10-10-2011 16:05

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #379
 
Take the controls they said, can't go that badly they said. I beg to differ.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #379
 
Not even pool noodles and plywood would have helped in this situation.

rachelholladay 10-10-2011 18:42

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #379
 
We decided to throw ourselves into robotics. Unfortunately, for the car, FIRST is the hardest fun you will ever have. Results shown.

Travis Hoffman 10-10-2011 19:57

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #379
 
Mark Plant's prior knowledge of crashing a moving thing into other moving things has become rather useful during his NASA Glenn internship, although having experienced the glorious carnage of such collisions firsthand, he does have to resist the urge to hold a demolition derby with their prototype rovers.

(true story)

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #379
 
Sometimes, even Chief Delphi gets sick of robots and looks at other things instead.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #379
 
You know you have overdosed on FIRST when this is a result of a G33 violation.

JaneYoung 11-10-2011 00:19

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #379
 
Mark: Have you guys seen my keys? I think I left them somewhere around here.

J.Warsoff 11-10-2011 08:46

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #379
 
Mark, I think we should put the training wheels back on before you go test this thing again.

EricS-Team180 11-10-2011 09:19

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #379
 
OK, that was fun, but next time we are definitely using mecanums!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #379
 
This is why the referees started awarding teams red car(d)s when they didn't follow the rules.

Molten 16-10-2011 00:35

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #379
 
Don't worry, its ok. The car has the word "safe" wrote on it. Go on about your business.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #379
 
So begins the futile search for usable COTS parts.

Karibou 16-10-2011 11:29

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #379
 
By "minor repairs," they mean duct tape, WD-40, and zip ties. That stuff really DOES work...

Apologies for the invocation of the Billfred Is Working Way Too Much Rule--after 10 hours with the team yesterday, I was hosed!
