Go to Post One wondered why they couldn't practice in the gym that day - because the robotics team had it reserved was the answer. "Oh, we have a robotics team?" Sigh. This is a team with a low number. They've been around for at least a dozen years. There's still a lot more culture-changing to do. - GaryVoshol [more]

2008 Colorado Regional Advance Scouting Report
If you're coming to this week's Colorado Regional how about giving the rest of us a scouting report to 'prime our pumps' so to speak. Team 1583 will go first. Our robot has a custom 6-wheel drive chassis that is geared 5 fps. Our strategy is to score 16 points in hybird by taking down a ball and crossing two lines. We can take the ball down on the move. Our bot is designed as a herder with a front end specially designed to facilitate pining the opposition's trackball against the wall. The competition's best hurdler can't score many points without the ball. We will drive laps (~5 ) if no hurdler to defend against. At the end of the match we are also ready to take down any oppossition balls left on the overpass. Come by Thursday and let's talk. Just look for the mentor with the orange mohawk. We're looking forward to meeting everybody and having a great time playing with all of you.

Re: 2008 Colorado Regional
I'm really glad they got the scoring corrected from the practice matches to the qualification matches. But now I feel it is a lot more fun, Thursday seemed really boring and it almsot shaped up to be a horrible regional

Re: 2008 Colorado Regional
So what\'s the scoop going into tomorrow? Which Colorado teams are standing out? I miss being at the event and seeing the different teams we used to work with. Another thing that makes me miss Colorado while out here in little tiny New York.

How are 159, 662 and all the other Colorado teams looking?
