Re: motorized robot carts

As someone who works team que at several events may I make a request on behalf of all field volunteers everywhere and ask you to please don't make one?
I know alot of teams think it's so cool to roll up tot he field in some tricked out cart pumping jams out of your expensive sound system and flashing lights but have you considered how tight the space is around the field and the pits, the amount of spectators milling around (especially children) and unless your team number is 67, 1114 or a 469 wouldn't that brainstorming be better served building a better robot (last I heard a team has never been picked because they had a cool robot cart but I wouldn't be surprise if a team wasn't picked because other teams found their cart annoying and their robot underwhelming)?
I know I'm being a big mean ol' jerk because of this but all I ask is you please think about this before you do this. It's one thing to make a cart that bring tools and batteries to the field but do you really need all that other stuff?
