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

Having been on the human player my first year then driver last year, as well as pit crew both years, my vote has to go to the pit crew. It is fun to be up behind the drivers station at competitions, but I do not enjoy it as much as maintaining the robot. In some ways I think it is more of a challenge to work on the pit crew. Even though driving is more stressful considering the total amount of time that the robot is on the field, there is not much more daunting of a task than getting a badly beaten robot back to operating condition in such a short time as we have at competition
I liked driving and all, but I'd rather be behind the scenes than in front of them.
