: Ok, now that 2 Regionals have played out, what do the players have to say about the importance of robot speed? Do tell.

I would definitely say that speed had it's place at the GLR...our machine was one of the quicker ones there, and the announcer's favorite line quickly became, 'and the Mystery Machine shoots across the field...' But without being able to control that speed, as well as having good maneuverability, speed is nothing...
