which team do you think has best drivers

[JWhiskers]

I think 1213's chassis drive is very good. He can run circles around other robots, and lines up with goals and the auto-load almost perfectly every time.

[Master Spoon]

111 has some good drivers and I gota give 179 their props great work at UCF.

[Joe Domingo]

Of the regionals we have been in I must say 254 are amazing and the three cute girls who drive 69 are pretty awesome too.
Looking forward to Atlanta.

[whakojacko]

second the 254 comment, they drove great at svr.

[Swampdude]

Thanks!, Tytus and Amanda have amazed me so many times I can't count. I'm really going to miss them at the wheel and in the shop... *sniff* why do they have to grow up??
Oh well, the world will be better off with them around - good kids.

Not to spout back, but you pink guys knocked my socks off. Especially that 1st round of quarter finals when we threw a chain and 1592 were having problems - you guys nearly won that match by yourselves against an awesome capping alliance. That was really impressive. I remember just standing back and watching you guys go to work picking up the slack. Awesome.

thanks, yeah that was definitely interesting and if we didn't have our arm touching that last tetra we would have won but things happen but i am just glad i am doing good for my first year on the team and making tower operator but man playing with swamp was awsome.

hey which rookie team drivers seem to have the most potential for the coming years

[Bill_Hancoc]

67, definately. 3 wheel drive swivel steer, anybody?

I agree that doesn't look very easy to drive to me and they seem preety fluid with it and all

can you put a link with there robot or something becuase i don't think i have seen theirs robot

[spears312]

Being one of 312's leads on strategy this year I saw many drivers preforming awesomely out on the field, but two teams that stick out would have to be 179 and 1251. 179 was just flat out, full force, take no prisoners driving while still being successful. Swamp Thing truly showed what the AM transmissions are capable of when in the right hands. As for 1251, by the time they had reached the end of the seeding matches for Palmetto they were demonstrating smooth and effortless driving, and although many teams did this, 1251 was the only team I was aware of whom had two sets of drivers. I probably would have never noticed their two drive teams if I hadn't been standing near them when they swapped in the finals. I really hope to see some more awesome drivers in the coming Championships.

[krunch79prez]

I don't know how they are this year, but last year at nationals I really enjoyed watching team 16 BBS. They are just amazingly smooth and calm drivers.

Another has to be 233 PINK. They destroyed everybody so far this year and the robot didnt just do it by itself so props to you guys!!!

Last i have to put 71 in there because the Beast wouldnt be a Beast without them!!!

i think that team 79 has the best drivers. they have a crab drive system but they have to switch through the different settings to do the different things. like if they want to turn using their back wheels they have to press a button. if they want to do something else they have to press a button. that takes a lot of concentration. good job guys.

Thanks dude my teams drivers Andre and Geoff will really appreciate it!!!

[Adam Richards]

Hmm... best drivers? 233, 179, and 79 (I may just be a little biased on the last one for some reason ).

233 for their awesome robot, 179 for their amazingly fast robot, and 79 because their crab drive is incredible (and they were our mentors last year...)

I was SO surprised this year with 1251 from the previous year. It almost felt like a different team. I think its takes more than having skillful drivers. It takes a good robot + good drivers = to make a good team. I am sure there are many great drivers out who are doing well with pretty low end robots. 111 has always had the best, of the best, of the best engineering and programming on their bot. If I had to guess, it is probably drives like a dream! And for 179, it drives so smooth most of our grandmothers could win a regional if they had the swamp bot. In the words of Tytus "drives like a Cadillac, Pushes like a Caterpillar" Practice does make perfect, I am sure most of the top seeding teams had a ton of practice time.
