Re: robot speed
Since alex1699's school in located in the middle of Connecticut, I doubt that his team is actually a bunch of rednecks. More likely it is a bunch of yankees.
I, on the other hand, attended a public high school in the middle of South Carolina. My school was quite literally full of rednecks. Some (most?) of my best friends were rednecks. (And the rest were transplanted yankees!) Rednecks are known for many quirks that non-rednecks might find strange, but a preference for slow gear ratios is emphatically NOT one of them.
Conclusion: Adam is right, the point is ambiguous at best.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
