Before the first finals match I told our team that even if our robot burst into flames and was left a pile of ash on the field it would still be our best showing ever, we had only made it to the semifinals previously.

I hope we can make it to St. Louis, we have about 31 hours left to raise $4K more we need for the entry.

Contact all your sponsors. Contact new sponsors. Talk to your parents. Take out a loan. Go onto Kickstarter. This is not a chance that comes often, and not a chance to miss!
