Re: The Niagara Triplets the best team(s) in 2006?

Triplets are one of the best, however, 25 is better and undefeated for good reasons.

It's a quick loader, HP loading is working a lot better than anyone ever expected, it holds a good amount of balls 20 or so? Autonomous works every time, and they have a few to select from. The drivetrain is unbelieveable, it's quick and with 2" thick, 9" wheels they got a lot of traction and that makes it pretty tough to push them around easily, on top of that it has a brake, and Corey knows how to drive it. But the thing that seperates this robot from everyone else, they shoot soooo fast, they have a catapult like mechanism to keep the balls flowing in, and then the shooter shoots them like any other robot. Nobody has shut them down at all, there are strategies you can use against them, but nobody can find the right combo.


The triplets do have one thing going for them though, there are 3 of them you need to beat and they can load off the ground.
