Pretty Pleeeease Andy can you consider doing it at IRI?

I second that! We were invited but logistics got in the way.

Do the math:

IRI egos (they reportedly come to play there) + drag racing =

[its da PAT!!!]

its would be cool but 102 gets to keep it for the year until next time at champ.

I'm quite suprised that I hadn't heard about this, at 19ft/s I would think that our robot would have been invited. What was the speed of the winner?

102 is geared for 27 fps, but also has enough torque to have their very light bot accelerate very quickly on that pavement.

Is this the start of the race? Does wearing boots make Dean into a robot?

Thirded! As Kyle Love said, we were invited to attend but could not as none of the Purdue FIRST teams were attending the after party event.

This would be a fun thing to do at IRI after matches on Friday or something.

At the moment, Orion will only be at Monty Madness...
There are plans to attend a few others such as Brunswick Eruption, Ramp Riot, August Adventure
Sadly IRI is a bit too far for the team to travel... however if I had the robot and about 5 days of nothing to do, you could bet that robot would be out there hehe
