I also love this picture - it's a great view of the inner workings of the bot. You can see the kicker, the transmissions and 8-wheel drive train, the winch motor and transmissions, the safety-stripe roll bars.

The beyond-90 degree wobble-back is a big thrill and a huge crowd-pleaser. Since the first few Jersey matches, huberje has become better at going over the bump flat and fast, so we don't show the wobble much any more. It showed up a little when he was trying to figure out how to park on the hump in Virginia practice matches (also a crowd pleaser).

yeah we were paired in one practice match and y'all started trying to park on the bump... not knowing that your bot apparently can't fall over we danced back and forth trying to keep you up and keep out of your way at the same time lol
