I wasn't really that worried about winning too much. I'm not trying to be conceited, but I think that it was the best robot at that event, or at least second or third. And the robots aren't that difficult to make. For the most part it's all plug and play. The advantage comes when you have a machine shop, and know how to use it (particularly for weaponed robots). Of course, lots of people are successful without them, just proper tools help. I can’t remember if it got first or second, but it’s placed really well at a few events.

That's bad ass :). Is this your first win in a competition or had you won before? I so wish I knew how to build machines instead of just program on them. I don't even know how to do that particularly well ;). Congrats! That’s bad ass :) . Is this your first win in a competition or had you won before?
