Re: 2008 IRI (Indiana Robotics Invitational)
This was my most memorable IRI yet, with our incredibly lucky takedown of the #1 alliance, the delphi driving tomorrows technology award, and coming home with a scholarship.
Our alliance had its own set of issues as in our first quarterfinals match we had to play our awesome backup bot (1731) because 1024 randomly lost a side of there drive in pre match testing. Then we had a motor randomly cut out (the one that steers the wheels) basically immobilizing us. The motor cut out again in the second finals match which if it hadn't we could've gotten 4 more points for the win and taken it to a 3rd match.
this was my last IRI as a student on the team, and i dropped my base driver position to become coach, which i'll be continuing.
thanks to the Ref's thanks to the volunteers and thanks to the teams for making it the funnest event ever
