: on theory, 2 goals...

: However, it is extremely hard to control the goals from falling over to the other side...

: That's why it take Heatwave and Metal in motion to do it in KSC.

: Usually what ended up happening, is the two goals is being setup in front of those big arm robots, and there are usually a little trouble lining up the two goals for the bridge.

: Then, it take a lot of traction to push two goals up the bridge, and sometimes when there aren't enough traction, the wheels keep spinning on the carpet doing nothing. Then it take couple of backing up to build up the momentum, spending all those effort until suddenly the goals went too far and fall on the other side of the bridge.

At WMR, I watched Beatty do it, I never saw them fail, never saw them struggle, or spin the wheels, near perfection...
