Go to Post I will never forget Dean's opening lines: "I want you to know that I am here under protest. I believe that everything you are doing here is repugnant and ethically wrong. And now I am going to tell you why..." And for the next 35 minutes, that is exactly what he did. - dlavery [more]

Re: Team 696 Design, "Reinvent the Wheel"

Dear Brad,

Believe me, we tried it. We wanted to be like JPL/NASA, where they created every worst case scenario possible for the Mars missions. The wheel actually self-centers the innertube! We were quite relieved.

Also, if we reverse the wheel while we're driving, we can prevent opponent innertubes from getting in our way. The wheel simply flings them aside.
