SPEED Rivalries

We had a banquet up here for all our SPEED (Student Projects for Engineering Experience and Design) teams. SPEED is a program of Clarkson's which funds all the different teams (like FIRST) our University competes in. Every so often, all the speed teams get together and promote awareness in the community and the University. But I digress...
I was driving last years robot around the room with a tray of cookies on top. The Mini-Baja team was there with their Baja car. We were taunting them with the robot, and they decided to 'leash' it. Unfortunately for the Baja-team, they didn't have their e-brake on. The robot managed to pull the entire Baja-car, and one stunned and confused driver.

That'll teach those Baja-Boys to mess with FIRST Robotics!
