Orlando Week 3.

233, 624, 180, 1902, 744, 179, 4451, 1772 (I haven't worked with them as much this year so I'm not as biased, but man they are good), the list goes on and on and on.

CVR all the way. I can't wait to see the 1323 machine play some real matches, it's going to be a sight to see. Here's to hoping we see a finals with 973, 254, 1323 and 696 all competing in a blaze of glory...

today at the Arkansas regional, during one of the practice matches, us (team 4490), Bomb Squad (Team 16), and the TechnoKats ( team 45) we ran 5 60 point cycles, 45 truss shot, we caught, and 16 hit the high goal. Very smooth and consistent, there was no defense but even still, it went great. We also scored 2 auto balls and everyone moved! I hope to see us pair up again and beat the highscore, watch the Arkansas regional everyone!

Groton, hands down. As someone else pointed out, sure, there's no 1114 or 118 there, but the number of robots one slight step below the absolute peak is insane. There are at least 10 teams that are all but guaranteed to field a highly competitive robot, and then there's still 20 more teams that have the potential to show something special, and you know some amount of them are going to.

Sunday is going to be intense. I don't want to say it's going to feature massive scores or incredible plays, because there is generally some pretty effective defense up here, but these matches are gonna be really close and really exciting.

yeah, I agree with the comment about groton. Sure, it's fun to watch 118 or 1114 blow everybody out of the water in qualifications, but I have a good feeling that there are going to be plenty of really high qualification scores in Groton.

Totally ok, I would feel the same way, team 45 got it on video so hopefully they will email it to me tonight, if anything I will get it tomorrow, it was pretty cool.

I just watched the video of this match. I'll try to get it put up tomorrow. We had 4 full 60 pt cycles + 2 in not hot goal + 1 cleared auto ball + 3 drive forward = 285 (Spyder agrees for match 28-P). We should have made 5 cycles, but we missed a few shots. Sorry guys.
It was a fun match to watch for sure.

Here is the video. Again, this was just a practice match, but it was a lot of fun.

That was an epic match!! It would've been much harder to pull off in a real match but then again the drivers weren't trying their hardest since it was a practice match. It is beautiful to watch, hats off to 16, 45, and 4490!
