Re: Best Looking Gearbox
I vote for 148's Tumbleweed 2008 gearbox. Just peering down into that thing, and seeing all that raw power driving that little chassis -- well, let's just say I like torque. The more the better.
The most amazing thing to me was that they were a winning #1 AC in Week 1, and later a second pick winner on Einstein. A truly great drive train can be the foundation of a championship season, even when game play evolves beyond the robot's initial design capability.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
