The cable chain was given to them by us (team 217) at the competition. You can pm me for details, but it is a GorTrac plastic cable carrier with the brand name of NylaTrac. Both teams put wires and tubing through the carrier.

At the 2004 Long Island Regional, Teams 1114 and 229 paired up to win the regional. During that event, Team 229 placed a Canadian flag on their robot, and was wildly successful. During the elimination rounds in Rochester, I thought it would be appropriate to try and rekindle some of this luck, especially since 229 was paired with another Canadian team in 772. Fortunately, Team 1547 had an extra flag that they were willing to donate to the cause.

Paul, I'll be sure to get you a flag in Atlanta. Especially if we end up working together. Can anyone say "Thunder Simbot"?
