Re: pic: Team 148 - Robowranglers 2010 - Armadillo

Another amazing creation by the Robowranglers. These guys are by far the best team in FIRST at creating highly competitive robots that look like something that you would see on a showroom floor. I had the opportunity to spend a week with these guys during the build season and was blown away by how well this team functioned. Everyone knows about their all-star mentor base, but they also have some of the most ingenious students that I have ever met in this program. It's neat to see the "final" versions of the prototypes that I saw being work on in week 2. (In fact a couple of these prototypes had significant influence on the 2010 1114 robot.)

Congratulations on an amazing machine. I can't wait to see it in Atlanta and maybe even sooner...
