From what I understand about the Hawaiian Kid's drivetrain, they used 4 CIMS and 2 Banebots in their drivetrain. We had 4 CIMS. Both were shifting (I'm unsure of the speeds, but I'll see if I can find it in our pit scouting data).

After the break, we asked around for a replacement dog- the only team that had the right dog was 868, who loaned it to us. Due to some issues, that one ended up breaking as well (incorrectly drilled hole, I think. I was in the stands scouting the whole time.)

We ended up replacing the shifting gearbox with our old single-speed from during the season (the 2-speed was an improvement to allow us to cycle better at IRI). Great improvement, right?
We also added a back-of-the-pyramid shot, a full-court blocker, and a centerline autonomous routine that we didn't end up getting to use. Rather disappointing that we put in all that work for nothing.

Ouch.
Too Soon.


On the bright side, we gained valuable experience!
And the matches at IRI were incredible.
Those finals were unbelievable.
