The coolest thing in the world!
Team 578 - Blue Lightning, had a great time at the Canadian regional.

Thanks to all the Canadian teams for your warm hospitality (we needed it, under the masonite floor was an intact hockey rink - ICE included! :c)

We had one totally awesome match. We were doing our best to block the ramp at the bottom, to keep both robots from the other team on our side

and we got smacked so hard the shaft on our front wheel snapped - and the skyway wheel fell off our Bot!

The driver almost hit the kill switch, but he saw me on the side line jumping up and down, waving towards the ramp, screaming, " GO! GO! GO! GO! GO!"

it took a good 15 seconds, but our 4-wheel-drive-minus-one robot dragged itself up the ramp, leaving the 4th behind on the carpet.

I dont remember what happened after that - it was the coolest thing Ive ever seen.

FIRST is awesome!
