Frank asked me to hop in as a ref, as one of the refs had to leave at 2pm on Friday. Since I'm "certified", they didn't have to train another person. By Friday afternoon, many of the drivers got used to the way things were being called, and not too many "breaking the plane" actions were happening.

This was good for me, as I will be the head ref at this weekend's Michigan Rookie event and then at the FRC Oklahoma City Regional during week 4.

Back to the subject of this thread...

Teams 70 and 494 have very nice machines this year. Their intake roller on their ball claw is impressive, but not as impressive as their abilities in hybrid mode. The scary thing is that these machines will only get better as the season progresses.
