Balancing on top of another robot... now THAT's creative! haha we saw that in 2007 with Rack 'n' Roll. My only thing with that is I would soooooooooooo not trust anyone to be able to balance our robot atop theirs, navigate a 20 degree incline, and risk a 1' drop on either side of a balance teeter-totter... I think I'll stick with balancing the old fashioned way. But man that would be something to see!
