Re: What is more of an honor, Pit Crew or Drive Team?

Well, thats basically the best way to phrase it. However, the way i see it is that the drive team is the one thats honored the most because they are out there controlling what the pit team fixes up and builds. They are also responsible for how the robot does in competition. Yet without the pitcrew, the drive team would be moot, because there would be no robot to field. Drive team just measures your on the fly thinking, handeye, communication, and reflexes(as a rule of thumb).

So really, the Pit Crews tend to be the unsung heroes to the population, but to the team community, the pit crew would be the most honored.

You can call me a selfcentered egotistical little *explicit deleted* but, id much rather be on the drive team myself. Just something about it brings a passion out of me that i can only get when competing in sports or talking about sports.

If you do say something that isn't just for fun or praising something, which hopefully you do, just be prepared to back up what you said.

Remember: GP is Gracious Professionalism, not Glorifiying Plesantries. Saying something negative does not mean you are evil. It could help someone out a lot.

Anything that I post is an opinion from my own mind. Some may agree with it, others may not. However do not negatively associate anyone else, including any team I work with, with my opinion.
