Introductions..


Hey guys, today I would like to introduce a new friend of mine. His name is The Beast.
Today, Kenny and I finally tested our self constructed robot! After writing a quick program, we set it to the test, and it performed beautifully. With nervous gazes our robot approached the final stretch, with only cans in it's way, and to raging applause, it fired its cannon into the obstacles, and rode to victory! (it forgot to stop though) After a few tests, we managed to tune some of the turns and various parts of the program in order to complete the course successfully. The only thing that we still have to do by wednesday, is finish the extreme fine tuning, and perhaps find a better steering mechanism, since our robot veers off course quite disruptively at some points.

Let its name be called "RAWR!" since it's cool. Our robot, though looks perfect, is still under cunstruction then and is still not well balanced due to the terrain we were facing.

Haha really nice name, "The Beast" (don't change the name to what Kenny suggested), it is kind of hard to see what you write after that as the background is dark and your font is black.
