Go to Post Honestly, I'd volunteer my team to be on that alliance. It'd be an honor to touch bumpers with those bots. - ttldomination [more]

Not scared of any and actually very excited to see them all in real life . Its like a west coast mini championship..as was said earlier the alliance that wins it earns it..like it should be. We tend to build fairly robust bots ours has broken so far 6 separate times, twice in practice and four times in competition.

My advice to all teams...bring everything spare part wise and harden those connections on Friday. Every connection and every spare part. Order more today overnight. Yes you need it. If defense is played as in San Diego even more parts.

Would much rather go into a high level competition than a lower one. Looking forward to it, we had an absolute blast in Ventura last year similar high end field. Better bots means potentially better alliance partners too. Its all relative.
...didn't realize it was such a sensitive topic. Next time I'll refrain from somewhat whimsical responses.
