Per usual your team has a great robot and is always fun to play with behind the glass. I look forward to seeing your team at almost all of our off season events (IGVC, MARC, IRI, and Kettering!?).
Also for the off season events we have some Rumble Pi that we are adding to our bot to help prevent the problem we had at MSC.

I think it was a great first attempt for our alliance. Not sure you could've seen that ball if you tried. I didn't even notice it in the stands after you were up. Had to ask Nick what happened because we were all balanced and still and then poof, we were tumbling. Hard to believe that a little nerf ball can push that big bot. (darn physics) LOL I wish we would have been able to advance further and play more with you! But definitely looking forward to that opportunity this summer.
We are trying to decide how best to use our 5 pounds also. Adding extra wheels is certainly something we have contemplated, even for worlds, but our autonomous was running so well, we didn't want to risk messing that up. Now that we have time to tinker, the team is trying to make a decision which add on would be best. Plus, waiting to see if we have additional weight at MARC or not before we dig in too much.
