[TRASH-TALK] Yeah, we're not too worried about Red. After all, we demonstrated autonomous way-point following two months before they even got their humvee started. [/TRASH-TALK]

The team I fear most is the Palos Verdes High School RoadWarriors. While it would be very cool if they beat us, I wouldn't be able to go back to work for fear of all of the ribbing I'd get .
