AND PLEASE remember not to be un GP and ram your robot into others. Yes it’s against the rules but it still happens and isn't always called. We had big problems with teams ramming into us last year. But we have found our own little ways of stopping the unstoppable.

yea ramming was a problem last year...at nationals we were pinned against the wall and being rammed repeatedly and it wasnt called. we finally faked him and got out of there, but there was some damage as a result of it
