Go to Post In 2001 instead of staring at the field at the game I turned around and watched the people watch the field. All I could see was a mass of people from all corners of the world, eyes lit up, gears turning in their heads. That, to me, is FIRST in action. - Jessica Boucher [more]

Happy programming
I happened to be a programmer, and ttedrow is right.
Last year we had to compensate for the differenced between the motors on the left and the right, but it is probably easier to fix by programming it, compared to rebuilding it.
