PMGRACER is on a distinguished road
Team Rush 27 won the Buckeye Regional, runnered up in the Great lakes Regional, seeded #2 in the Newton Division and lost in the semifinal round.

We are a Bosch/Atwood combo planetary shifter trans bot. The trans was extremly durable this year. We had one of the fastest Auton modes in FIRST at 3.1 seconds to the top of the ramp and had plenty of pushing power.

Ours is a shift on the fly using pneumatic cylinders for crisp shifting. I posted a couple of JPEGS in the Gallery a few months back.

I wouldn't say the transmissions alone were the reason for our success this year. It was a combination of a durable chsis design, a strong arm mounted to a turret, pneumatic wheels, and having 6 wheel drive with the center wheel articulating up and down.
