Re: pic: 612.....dark side of our robot!
That is just about the coolest thing I've seen on a robot so far! 
Incidentally, what is it?

This is actally or guide to the turret. its made out of lexan, and when you put lights in the bottom part, it looks really kool. We drove it around in night time, and it was soo kool.
But i just got a question here. can we use any kinds of lights on the robot, except the one FIRST provide us with?

(I'm assuming you mean any lights besides, not except the lights provided by first.

Re: pic: 612.....dark side of our robot!
Last night I was standing next to the halogen light on the right and the bulb rattled out of its stand (because the shooting wheels and the entry roller were on full speed on top of a shaky table).
The bulb hit the right shooting wheel, which happens to be about 3 inches away, exploded and shattered down and to the right- into my right hand.
All of our safety glasses, of course, were doing a wonderful job protecting the table.

I remember that, lol I was there. Yeah like Nate said the lights came off because of vibration but we just added covers for them so this doesn't happen again.
