We had the robot sitting in my friends garage for a while so we decided to do some "official" testing by pulling his Ford Ranger X-Cab down the street.

As for the fundraising idea, it's great. I thought of that a month or so ago and would have done 50 events like you describe but one thing bothered me. I was concerned that somebody stupid would slam it from full reverse into full forward and break it. Your failsafe button idea is the solution. I would just hit it if they are driving it too hard. I think I'll be borrowing our programmer, Punar, for a couple hours.

What would you charge for this type of thing. $2 for 30 secs of driving?
