Well, at the regional competitions (GLR and Pitts) it did perfect. When we clamped down, no body could move us - even with our wings spread out. It was an awesome sight to see...

But at Nationals, we did perfect at first (the first 2 matches i think) but than the top of the ramp started to get badly scratch (we had 1/8" thick foam which was very soft) and lots of dirt, so we could clamp and take 1 hit, after that we needed a second to re-draw the vacuum! Either than that, it was an awesome invention! (It earned us Xerox Creativity Award at Pittsburgh!)
