Re: Let's See Your Robot's Battle Scars

Half way through one of our qualifying matches, we found that we were driving with what seemed to be 50% of our normal drivetrain power. Pulled it out after the match to find this.

2 of our wheels were gummed up with field marking tape. One of the kit hex bearings broke as well, I suspect as a result of the immense belt load seen when driving with our clogged pulleys.
