Miss Daisy, I have the utmost respect for your team and all that it is. You're consistently one of the best robots out there and play the game in ways 2537 could only dream of emulating. But if I asked Miss Daisy to find a way to climb the pyramid in 4 seconds, how realistic would it be? I don't see a way to do it unless you literally dedicate your robot to climbing. And you know just as well as I do that 30 (or maybe even 40 with dumping) is probably good enough for a regional but not good enough for the Newtons, Curies, Galileos, Archimedes and Einsteins. No disrespect, MD, but personally I think 4 seconds is simply ludicrous.
