SPAM had built a deployable ramp (when "wedges" were legal) on Friday of the championship and mounted it Saturday morning, specifically to counter Beatty's fabulous robot from that year. The idea was that we would wedge under them to remove their traction so we could push them back. I think the match with Wildstang was the division finals, and it's the only time we ever used the ramp. It worked just as it was supposed to - we pushed Wildstang out of their home zone. When we went up against Beatty in the championship finals we didn't get a chance to use it since they got damaged in match 2, but we should have used against RAGE in the last match - just a matter of not having practiced with it so it wasn't part of our normal strategy.
