Thanks 364 and 475

Thanks guys, we couldn't have won LSR without ya. 457, you guys played smart and hard and we couldn't have made it through that last Qual or the Elims without you getting our backs. 364, you guys rocked, I was amazed all day with y'alls speed and hanging ability. And "Arm-a-gettin'"? That was classic.

Hope to see you both at Nats, maybe. We're still checking into actually going.

Re: Thanks 364 and 475

That was so much fun. 57 you guys were awesome. You were one of the few teams that could hang from the floor every time. I never knew what those claws on the front were for until one of the teams tried to get on top while we were both hanging. 475 was the ultimate sleeper team for us anyway. You guys were a force to be reckoned with and no one you guys encountered could handle yall. I hope to see you both at nationals and post if you go and find out where you are staying. We are staying at the omni. Thanks for an awesome ride Austin McQueen Driver 364

Re: Thanks 364 and 475

I think the winning Lone Star alliance will be an alliance for quite a while. I am sure it will be remembered for several years to come. 57 and 364 and 457 will remember each other and what great fun we had on April 3rd. Undefeated.

A simple explanation of our strategy, was that we knew there wouldn't be enough hangers to go around, so we chose the best hanger we could get our hands on, and the best *itch bot we could get our hands on. My sister on field reset had nothing but praise for 364, their hanging, and their autonomous.

We didn't notice 457 until we saw that they were playing against 909, the #1 seed, in a qualifying round (this was when we were interested in our chances at #1 seed), and until we saw that they were playing with us in a qualifying round. We set up relations with them, and even though they were dead in their round against 909 because of a battery connector, we saw their merit. We saw their pushing abilities, their power, speed, and ability to wreak havoc. 118 knows this, unfortunately. 1205 also knows this.

And now, Georgia bound we are.
