Even then, it all starts with when you push that button and how fast your minibot get out on the pole.

I really wish it was a set bonus.

Our minibot was deployed by the CRIO using software. We set our start time at exactly 1:50. Our drive team held down the fire button during end game and the crio would release the minibot at the exact time.

To be honest I don't think I would have even been a mentor if it wasn't for this blog.. One day the Yooper Troopers will be on 148's level just by learning how the pros do it. John just change the blogs title to mentoring for dummies.
