I nominate the MOE Pit crew as Progessional grade. During the Philadelphia Alliance Regional, both of MOEHawk's wings sustained damage. The right wing was twisted completely backwards rendering it useless, the left wing was moderatly twisted, and we only had 15min before the next match (note.. after 5min in the pits, they started calling us to be in the queue line).
The pit crew was able to completely replace the right wing along with all sub-systems AND bend the left wing back into working order within the 15min and we were able to deploy, grab all three goals, and held ground the entire 1:53 (after latching down) against 2 robots with minimal support from our allie. We won the match with 0qps because the 'enemy alliance' pulled out of the end zone and blocked our allie from getting into their zone.
Go MOE's Pit Crew!
