What's a MechaRam?
Better have a cool mascot, you know, horns and nuts and bolts, Maybe some 80/20.
Hopefully their robot can scale a pyramid with élan.

Week 5? Uh-oh, better look busy.

Time flies when you're having fun, I guess. (And does that mean it's really been a year since my WAI picture? Man, my hair was short then....)

Just loaded the robot and accoutrements into the pits.
Ready for Thursday. We think.

I'm pretty excited for CT. I know our friends on 20 and 2168 made some upgrades after WPI. See you all Saturday!

Early load in is done. Immense room in the pits this year. Practice field has a mostly standard pyramid and plywood upper goals. Pyramid coloring is hybrid to say the least.

10x10 pits but giant aisles. Machine shop against the "far" wall and in the open. They have expressed an interest in coffee as a human lubricant. I'm hoping they get the consideration they deserve.

The stands are further back from the field than last year. Same size, not so cool, but WTH it's home.

WOW, just getting back to reality. If there needs to be proof of inspiration, look at 4134. Many thanks to 2067 and 230 for having a little faith in a second year team. Reflecting back on our 2012 rookie year we wondered how we could ever compete in the same league with teams like the Gaelhawks , Apple Pi, Grasshoppers, CyberKnights and the Rocketeers.

There is much more to this than building a robot and 4134 RoboRams have been fortunate to learn from some of the best teams in the world. The 4134 kid's have experienced something they will not soon forget.

Thanks to all of the teams and Volunteer's who have allowed us the opportunity of a Lifetime.
