Well, as far as working on next years robot -- don't. First of all, building a base before the game is idiotic because the drive system is very dependent on the game. This year lots of teams went to treads for traction which they wouldn't have needed as much last year. We went to a pivoting drive train as a few other teams did. Secondly, it's illegal to build anything before the six weeks anyway. If you have a neat drive train idea, you can prototype it and such but don't plan on definately using it. You got to match it to the game.

Matt who when he introduced himself to someone at NJ was expected to keep talking like he does here
