Also I knew that 1038 and our team had a mutual desire to work together at the competition. The way I understood it was that if after talking to their drivers they believed that we could climb their ramps (they had never heard of meccanum wheels and were kinda uncertain) we would be their second round pick. Now I see I was wrong, I could sure go for an explanation right about now. ps They never asked us for money.
haha i was just disappointed in their unprofessionality... we were top seed at our regional (GSR) and i listened and talked to all the teams that wanted a chance. I never shunned or acted immature and my dad happened to be walking by and heard the money comment.. it was funny..

(granted i have my immature moments elsewhere...)
