Wayne,
I'll be in Cleveland that weekend, competing with 229.
I have yet to make it down for the NYC regional, despite much pressure to do so. Hopefully next year.

I'll be at nationals, even if the team isn't. Dad and I are actually teaching one of the Championship conferences together -- Advanced Drivetrain Calculations & Modeling. Nationals is always a blast, wouldn't miss it.

Actually -- we've got many great mentors on this team. All of whom contributed to this robot & this great season. This robot is a team effort, and I'm proud to say I worked with so many great individuals to make it happen.

Kudos to our lovely team leader -- Adrienne Emerson.
She certainly proved to be a much more capable team leader than I ever was. I "blame" this season and robot on her.

Good Luck to 395,
John
