WOW!!!!!! Those are enormous treads... quite impressive... and intimidating. I've noticed that adding intimidation to your robot usually weighs a lot, how much did this?

I heard that the treads were made by one of their sponsors, Foster Miller.

EDIT: After some more research into Foster Miller, I learned that they manufacture the TALON Robots, which are in use by military personal.

Notice a similarity in the tread?
