Go to Post Look at the success of the Banebot's gearboxes this year. Cheap, light, small, and a lot of people are using them, even though their quality may be a bit questionable... Make a similar gearbox for a drivetrain (with a bit more robustness) and I think you've got a winner. - Ben Piecuch [more]

Re: Team Songs?

Our team has an unofficial song, "Kryptonite" (3 Doors Down). Some younger siblings also adapted the lyrics from Fergie's "Fergalicious" into our own song, "Uberlicious".

We've affectionately given some of our robots unofficial theme songs- our 2007 robot, Dynamite, has the theme "TNT" (ACDC), and our 2008 robot, Lightning, has the theme "Greased Lightning" (from Grease.)


And I second Koko Ed's idea for 1902.

Re: Team Songs?

We changed "We Will Rock You" to "We're All Gearheads"....lyrics are on our website (http://gpgearheads.org/82). Whenever "We Will Rock You" starts playing, I start accidentally singing our version, even though I don't think we've ever sang it as a team since I joined last year. (Well, my friend and I do on our own, but it's not quite the same thing o.O)

Re: Team Songs?

We don't really have one, but I have some suggestions:

"We Are the Champions" Queen
"(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" the Rolling Stones
"You Can't Always Get What You Want" the Rolling Stones
"You Can Call Me Al (Skierkiewicz)" by Paul Simon

1675, 1675, The Ultimate Protection Squad, Team 1675.
Rufus King and Tech, Rufus King and Tech, traditionally sub-rival schools, Rufus King and Tech.

We also did a few other songs, I don't remember them all >_<

Re: Team Songs?

ok- so last year we had the robot 'hammertime'. therefore, our song had to be mc hammer's "cant touch this". ( because of when he says 'Stop! hammer time.") it is soo perfect.

For Team 1114, it's all about "Temperature" by Sean Paul.

Re: Team Songs?

Last year 1678 was obsessed with "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air", to the point where we ended up naming our robot "the rarecab" and getting a mirror and some dice to stick on the plexiglass barrier when driving Don't know what our song will be this year.

Re: Team Songs?

For Team 135, i think a good theme song would be Operation Ground and Pound by Dragon Force

Re: Team Songs?

The students on the team like SPAM by Wierd Al Yankovich. Though my personal favorite is SPAM by Saving Ferris.

Either way, it's SPAM. Gotta love it.

Unfortunately, it's Cottoneye Joe. I'd prefer something that doesn't suck, but alas, it was chosen before my time.
