I've been on the TechnoKats since 1998.
However, when I first started at Delphi (then named Delco Electronics) in 1992, I shared a cubicle with an engineer who was designing our team's first entry in the Maize Craze US FIRST competition in '92.
Between the years of '92 and '97 various people in my department headed up the engineering of the TechnoKats before I got involved in '98. Although I wasn't involved with the team back then, I got to see the robots designed and heard how we did in competitions.
Finally, I settled down and got involved with the team in '98 and I've loved it ever since. Actually, my boss is the guy who designed the Maize Craze robot. This is great, since he understands FIRST and supports my effort and time spent away from my "real job" of designing automated production equipment.
