Darnit, 179! All the drooling caused by your sweet robot created a puddle on my laptop's keyboard!

Can't wait to see it at Palmetto.

Re: pic: 179 Swampthing 2k5
That is absolutely amazing!!

I thought our robot looked good (this is the first year we have painted the chassis), but when I look at that I feel totally humbled ...and inspired to take my team's artwork to the next level.

Is it just me or does it look like the black portion of the chassis held on by zipties?

I also like the outrigger setup and the unique positioning of the wheels (the middle wheel is farther out than the others).

Excellent job! I love it!

Jaine

Wow, that is amazing.

My only question, are your middle wheels lowered at all?

Amazing paint job and cutouts in the black shell. Great job guys.

What are those pneumatic braces for? Are you planning on planting yourself by the middle goals and defending / capping ? Anyhow, sweet robot.
