If anyone saw 494's "Torque Tester" at Nationals, it was pretty cool. We tested our robot on it.. but I'm not sure what it read.. if anyone can remember what team 234's robot read and post it here that'd be cool...

Anyways, apparently we had an insane amount of power, and I already knew we had a lot. It's just that a top heavy robot and a powerful drive aren't the best combo. Some of the robots we pushed include 245 and 71... too bad we didn't get a chance to up against 25, I would've really liked to see that

Edit : I just got the numbers from a team member, apparently we have around 168 ft/lbs of power but only around 1 ft. per second. Hopefully we can get the speed issue changed during the off season.
