I think i remember that.... i seem to remember a bot driving across the field, heading straight at one of our alliance members bots...hit one of the supports on the side and spun into the wall right before it got there i think so it didnt hit the bot luckily lol

On another note...

now im not so good at the whole weight distribution thing but if you hand your center of gravity more to the left side of the bot wouldnt that help the bot turn sharper or quicker? I guess if there was too much weight to one side your bot wouldnt go very straight... but i dunno so yea
