Go to Post I don't know how you can blame a robot getting stuck in the goal on the GDC. The field drawings showed all of the dimensions of the goals. If a team doesn't want to risk getting stuck then they need to plan around it. - JamesBrown [more]

Maybe this will give some perspective.

"Average" robot:
m = approx. 65kg
v = approx. 2.5 meters/second
KE = .5 * 65kg * (2.5 meters/second)^2 = 203 Joules

Speed Racer:
m = approx. 30kg
v = approx. 6.0 meters/second
KE = .5 * 30kg * (6.0 meters/second)^2 = 540 Joules
