At this point we aren't certain of the problem, but we suspect it was the digital sidecar. After the first failure, the drive team tethered it to the driver's station and all was working fine. This wasn't the case when running wireless. It's too bad we weren't able to defend against the powerful alliance of 254, 111, and 973.

Problems aside, we were ecstatic to make it as far as we did. We never expected to make it to Einstein. For that we extend our thanks to 2016 and 177 for making our first championship since 2003 amazing.
