I practiced with them for hours leading up to this. Their robot is so simple in so many ways. Their drivers are so extremely skilled and they're extremely nice.

Other robots that impressed me (on Galileo) were 254, for their slick shooter-like design, and 195 for their awesome hybrid. Of course, 1114 is also one awesome machine for... well... everything!
actually they had electrical problems in GLR, and that robot was bound to tip over eventually.
