Re: 2007 Waterloo Regional

Of course 1503 and 1114 look good.

610 looks very good.

There were some succesful rampings, but not too many. Most of the ramps here are 2ft wide and quite long, which has made for some precarious mountings. I saw several robots overshoot 1114's lift/ramp and fall over or almost fall over.

Excitement at the very end of practice: 781's robot nearly caught fire. The judges/safety folks had to go running for the fire extinguisher, but didn't have to use it. It was spewing the densest smoke I'd ever seen. Rumour has it their battery arced, so it may not even be permanent damage.
