Re: Killer Carts!

That mini-truck was beautiful! I really wanted a ride on it, but I may have missed my chance. I'm not sure. We just had a plain red metal cart with 3 levels. We kept tethers on the bottom, the control box and some tools on the middle and the robot sat on the top. It really didn't like that lip at the door going towards the tunnel from the pits at Nat's. I would have to lift it over while the guys either tipped the robot to get it under the doorway or lift it off completely while I got around them or through. It wasn't graceful, but it got the job done. I can't imagine having to carry it from the pits to Archimedes, especially on Friday. We had five matches, I believe!
