Congrats to Wildstang!

Every few years, a team creates a robot which “raises the bar” for the rest of us.

Wildstang’s entry this year was an amazing blend of electrical and mechanical engineering, quality construction and well trained drivers.

I am indeed humbled… Congrats to Team 111!

Yeah, Good job.


I'm with yan though, I looked for the light and couldn't find it at all. It was confusing and made it hard to tell what team they were on.

We all know that the main goal of FIRST is inspiration. Inspired is truly the way I have felt since I first laid eyes on a Wildstang robot in 1998. Since then I've always eagerly awaited the opportunity to see their yearly creation. This is a team that has mastered the design process. Their robots are always robust yet elegant. No team could have deserved this championship more. Congratulations to all past and present Wildstang members, you've helped bring FIRST to a new level.

Wildstang -

Very seldom, an opportunity comes along to create a "Dream Alliance." Playing with you was our dream from the first time we saw your robot at Great Lakes. I think our robots complimented each other extremely well. We were honored to share the big stage with such a gracious and brilliant team. We hope you enjoyed our time as partners as much as we did.


Huskies -

Over the years you have built one of the most inspiring FIRST programs in the county. I cannot think of a team more deserving of the Chairman's Award. We were also incredibly greatful that you picked us at Great Lakes, and agreed to play with us at Houston. I don't know what our alliance would have done without your incedibly reliable second round gameplay. Thank you for showing us what FIRST is all about.

Thanks again! Parts of the custom circuit are documented including the schematics of the custom circuit board on www.wildstang.org in the 2003 Inventor Award Section near the bottom of the front page.
