Hi,

Let me first start by saying that I am no strategy guru but the idea of 700+ or 800+ points does intrigue me. From my expirence watching teams @ UTC, and VA (not quite the caliber of 700 points but they did thier best I know). Anyways it was my observation and expirence that to try and get the stretcher over that ramp is just gonna take way to much time. Most robots aren't designed for it. It takes _a lot_ of power and there were times when teams tried it and got it just about there but didn't have that little extra push out there to get the ramp to swing down. So while I am slightly skeptical of 800 I thin 700+ is within grasp.

However...let me also say right here that I have learned over my 7 years in and following this program...the golden rule is NEVER EVER under ANY circumstances EVER under estimate the FIRST community! So bring it! I just ask that when 800 is scored I'm there 2 see it ;-P

-Justin
