What's the armor on it? Surely it's made to take some bullets.

It is armored by Foster-Miller's own LAST Armor - very nice.

When you interview, be sure to mention that you were in FIRST. I even brought in pictures of the robots I worked on and close-ups of the parts I worked on. If you interview in the TALON group, the guys that interview you LOVE to see videos - it is totally cool to bring in a laptop and show short clips of your robots in action. It sure helped me!

Yep, that was a great match. I recall you guys spent a lot of time in between 1114 and the rack, but I have not found the video yet so I can watch it again. Now that your teams are both in Curie, we will get to see more like that.
