Thumbs up Re: pic: 129 Point Match at BattleCry6

Y'all don't know the half of it. The previous match my team (40) broke some gears in the gearbox on our left side. We got Checkmate to the pit as fast as possible and went right to work. However, our next match (the one in the pic) came up pretty quick, and we were crunched for time. The gears were finally replaced just as the teams for the match were being called out. I got behind the cart and literally ran through the pits to the staging area, arriving at the field just as the thumbs up was to be given. The MC was aweful suprised when instead of the thumbs up, he recieved a thunderous NO! from the entire alliance.

We forgot to hook up one of the motors on the left side, but our driver did very well regardless. Actually, I would have to say that this match was one of the best matches teamwork wise that I have seen since the Nationals. Congrats to 228 and 121, you guys sure did run well!
