Re: How to get -130 In penalties
How many of you watched the ENTIRE match?
They went on to make 8-9 laps, drive pretty well & have a good match. I wouldn't think the problem is the robot or the team but the rule. There is no reason such a small infraction should have cost the team 120 points! They never made contact with another robot, they never impeded traffic, they never even hit the wall in hybrid. So why get 120 points in penalties?

If you want teams to succeed don't make rules that penalize you for driving in CIRCLES.
