you're never done until ship day - and then you're still not done

An update from team 948. We're driving again. We tested going up a six inch wall (not staircase, but the the sides of the platform) - and it worked. The robot rattles a whole lot.

On another note...

I don't think that a team can ever be "done". If you have everything you wanted on your robot before ship date (kudos to you if you do), then you'll just tweak and re-tweak, practice and re-practice. You never want to just sit there and say - ok, we're done!

After six weeks of working with these nut-cases(no disrespect, I love you all to death) I'm pretty much ready to take a break. Besides, a little rest before competitions(and by "a little" I mean excessive) can't hurt!
