In the sailboat racing world, anything painted orange must be fast. By definition.

Likewise, in the robot world, anything that is either blue or black is better. By definition.

On a more serious note, we had a team meeting to discuss whether or not we should buy vex-pro (limited budget etc). We're buying a couple components to test. We're hoping to have them before kickoff, but seeing how nothing guarantees it, we'll see what happens.

We always know that if we are unhappy with the VexPro quality (which would be VERY unexpected) or can't get parts fast enough, we can always get what we need at AndyMark.
