Re: 2015 Tesla Division

G'day Tesla!

Apologies for the late reply, but it has taken us a little while to get back home to the other side of the world....and to get over the worst of the resulting colds and sore throats.

As an international team we want to thank everyone on Tesla for the warm welcome and offers of help with tools, parts, and batteries. The teams in our general pit area, like Blaze, Discobots, Lake Monsters, and everyone else were just outstanding and patient with us...thank you! 1403 "Cougar Robotics" was amazing with their supply of tools, vacuum, batteries, and other parts...not to mention moral support! We also are grateful for Tesla taking home the majority of our koala give-aways since taking them home would have been extremely awkward.

For years to come, all 76 team can each say that we were on Tesla the first year it existed. There were so many great teams and alliances throughout the event which achieved a high level of competition throughout CMP.

We were shocked and humbled to win EI for the Archimedes-Tesla Division given so many teams impacting their communities.

3132 is totally indebted to 3476, 1255, and 2526 for joining us on the 2nd seeded alliance. We got to see first hand all the best in FRC teams at work in how the alliance came together and made a much better unit than perhaps the qualification numbers would have suggested. The drivers, operators, human players, pit crews, and drive coaches were just fantastic.

To one and all, congratulations on playing on Tesla at 2015 Championships and we wish you all the best in the future. Good on ya, mates!
