Well, wait.. What is "Pimp" defined as?

Re: Pimp things you've done in FIRST

I rode our 2003 chassis down a hill, and popped a wheelie which caused the frame to skid along the pavement, creating a huge skid mark down the street. That, my friends, is pimp.

Re: Pimp things you've done in FIRST

Used a standard FIRST battery with uncovered terminals while doing driver practice, having it touch the frame at just the right place when the robot turned quickly and bumped up a little (2003 robot), and dropping the voltage from 13V to .4V in a split second due to an interesting short.
