I have to agree with 1771. When we were scouting for Peachtree and saw a picture of their robot, my first thought was "that thing will never work." Boy I was wrong During a team meeting, after we got back from Peachtree, we were discussing other teams robots, and the comment came up about how affective 1771 was. I mentioned to our team that 1771 would not be going to the nationals, and you should have seen the jaws drop. I think the students realized how lucky they were to get to compete in two regionals and get the shot at nationals. Good luck next year guys. We'll keep a look out for you in the ATL, and I love the video you put together
