Well I am leaving for IRI, and I should be back in a couple days. It is a pretty big event and I am the driver, so wish me luck
 
Good luck.

We expect a full report and lots of (in focus) pictures when you get back.

Mike.

Well I am back, and I was the driver so I had no time for pictures, but we went to the quarter finals and were eliminated by one of the semi finalists teams. I learned a lot from a great guy (Mike Copioli) a programmer from team 217, thunder chickens. Our team's mentors seemed really happy with my driving and I have to admit we looked really good out there, the only problem we had was a wad of tape became stuck to one of our wheels and got wedged between the drive sprocket and the chain, nearly popping it off !

It was a lot of fun and my arms and legs hurt from lifting the 130+ pound beast

I will see if I can get any pictures from my team mates.
