We're still trying to figure out if this is our code's fault, something to do with the field, or caused by a chain skipping teeth.

One of our mentors took some 60 fps video of it and claims that our travel time was 1 frame shorter once we started moving .
We use iterative based Java and run PID on CANTalons. In order to make ours faster we changed the P value
