Put any three of those bots together and you have yourself a scary alliance. Awesome picture.

Re: pic: Team IFI

I love this picture! This picture has some of the best minds in FIRST all together, not all of the best but quite a few. All these teams and their robots are examples of excellence in FIRST. I hope IFI uses this as a promotion, these teams choose the best and use the best. I hope IFI continues this kind of successful backing of FIRST teams.

Re: pic: Team IFI

mmm... sheet metal....

It's cool to see these top teams sharing a sponsor; their robots are all beautifully designed and built, and it makes IFI look awesome (not that they didn't already). I wonder if we'll get to see more teams join the IFI Team in the future?

(and when is Team AndyMark going to start up? )

Re: pic: Team IFI

If I were running an FRC team that photo would make me afraid.

Is that Jason Morrella in the shades behind the Cheesy Poofs?

Re: pic: Team IFI

What's required to have IFI as a sponsor?

A mentor on the team who works for IFI?

I don't think so. I'm pretty sure that Jason has less hair than that. Whoever it is is wearing a Pink shirt and blue safety glasses.

Re: pic: Team IFI

IFI has been a great sponsor of Team 1114 for the past two years. The Simbots have many great sponsors, but IFI is by far the "coolest". All of our successes over the past two years were made possible by the support from IFI. One of the neatest things about Team IFI is the support shown for each other by all the teams. When 217 was on Einstein, the other Team IFI members rallied together to provide strategy and scouting advice for the Thunderchickens. It was definitely a cool dynamic.

This is really really scary to look at. All these robots are so beautiful. (And the people look nice too). And what exactly is IFI?
