Re: pic: "Gear Head" - trophy for FIRST Finale Asphalt Challenge

Cool trophy and great idea. Sadly team 1098 did not quite make the championship. We tried to have a speed grudge match at the St Louis regional but couldn't get it together. I am glad you got this orginized.

Our bot has seen plenty of asphalt during testing. In fact the school parking lot was covered with salt from a early February ice storm, the first time we did high speed runs outside (we has to replace the drive chains because of all the salt) and it did chew up the tires pretty fast.

Have fun, wish we could attend!!!

We hope to attend IRI and will race anyone there.

Andy

All of the gears spin as one, as with the helmet. The gears are all 3/8" broached gears, all positioned on a hex shaft. The shaft spins on bearings located in the performance wheel.

As for filming... please bring you cameras. I don't know what to expect with regard to that.

The Gear Head is now somewhere in Kentucky... on its way to Atlanta.

Re: pic: "Gear Head" - trophy for FIRST Finale Asphalt Challenge

1629 "advertised" top speed is 29 ft/s but i haven't actualy seen it move at that speed during a match. Mosty due to lack of space but we will see at Champs

Re: pic: "Gear Head" - trophy for FIRST Finale Asphalt Challenge

More then likely it did. 1646 was asked to attend but we did not attend the party so we were unable to attend.

More importantly, Dean Kamen won the "fan favorite" award, which was given to the crowds' favorite robot. If i remember correctly, Dean's time was 11.12 seconds.

There were many people recording the races, so I'm sure someone will share some video eventually.
