I'll pass on the compliments, I don't work with RUSH that much anymore. You know that whole thing where the kick you out of high school for having accumulated too many credits? Yeah had that happen after the 2007 season. Let me tell you though, having the team I work with now (397) partner with RUSH at Kettering was possibly the highlight of my years in FIRST.

Story time from 397 now though, we were testing autons. In every auton the feather raises right at the start, well, we got tired of putting it back down manually so we pulled the power to it. The mistake? We never plugged it back in. And as anyone who has seen our machine can tell you, if the feather doesnt come up our entire machine is useless because the forks cant deploy. Which meant we were pretty well screwed that match.
