Go to Post Our rookie drivers generally get their first "real match" experience at the Florida Regional which is usually a week 2 or week 3 event. That is a much easier "practice event" than IRI. - Kit Gerhart [more]

should it

None of this should matter, to truly compare the two, you must go back to the grass roots...

1)They both started with a man and a plan.

2)Battlebots and FIRST-bots are made with love and care by dedicated engineers in hopes of raising their intellectual level to a higher standard.

Sure, battlebots may have a certain violent intention for robots, but don't underestimate the power of inspiration.

Some Joe Smoe watching battlebots might feel so inclined to get up, read a book about engineering, and maybe go out a make a bot.

whatever it is, it sure is contagious...
