Thoughts on driving in FIRST Stronghold

Vision flags are the best thing known to driver-kind. That is all.

Well, it was my second year on the team and my first as a driver.

Vision was not as much of an issue, having an arm that can raise and lower as we need it to.

Things that did cause trouble include:

• Driving over boulders
• Trying to see past our own castle to defend (on the left driver station)
• Actually getting the drawbridge and sally port open (without dislodging our climbing hook)
• Lining up to climb and doing it in time
• Those darn dividers getting in the way.
• The wear and tear of being the designated "defense-runner-overer"

Things that were fun include:

• Running into everyone to keep them from shooting
• Every single time we ran over a defense like it was flat ground (minus the flying part)
• Getting those perfect partners that actually do what they say they will
• The one scale we finally got to work

The negatives list is longer, but I genuinely loved this game.
