Anyone on the pit crew on my team can easily testify that we suffered some of the heaviest damage Evil Machine has seen since the final 2 rounds of nationals.
In just one competition, BE 2.0:
Our wings were bent three times, we lost two pistons, lost use of the grippers, ofllowed by the final set of wings being ripped apart, then pneumatics and solenoids being heavily smashed, the arm itself taking so much damage that the rods keeping the grippers at a 90 degree angle to the floor snapped off and flew out, the arm itself refused to raise at time, we exploded two drill transmissions, broke off large pieces of QUARTER INCH DIAMOND PLATE armor, locked the drive train on several different occasions due to damages, blew a few couplings, couldn't even place the last set of couplings we had on CORRECTLY because of damage, and was even forced to disconnect the drill motors on three seperate occasions due to damages. Several of the pieces during the final rounds and the king of the hill rounds were ZIPTIED together.
Yet our pit crew made EVERY round, and EVERY mini game.
Daytona 500 pit crews- eat your hearts out.
BE 2.0 was tough. Wait until 3.0 :-D
