Rolling Thunder rolls over the Boston Regional as the first place seed and then thunders in as the winner of the event.

So once I got my heart rate under control, I looked at your reveal video. Very nice drive train, that 6WD is very nimble. Thanks for the close up of your indexing / launch motion, that was a very elegant way to get things in place.

Nice robot!
