Also, the 237/190 launch remains one of the sweetest moves ever pulled by an FRC robot.

Ah, that would explain why they didn't try to go up in auto in AZ that year, where 330 played them. BAE is always Week 1... I also seem to remember not many teams going all the way up in auto because of tipping issues.

I'd have to agree on that launch being a really cool move. How it worked I don't know, but it did.
