SIX WEEKS OF LUNACY!
FRC Season 2009 has begun!
Team60 will have SIX weeks to design and create a robot that thrives in a low friction environment--IMAGINE---operating an unmanned robot that has no breaks in a game competing against 4 other robots on a surface that is basically like driving on black ice-----all the while dodging items and trying to not get slammed enough to need repair....a major change in game design over the last several years.
Continue to support Team 60! Go to Kingman Robotics and all proceeds from every purchase of Vemma and Verve you make are given directly to Team60. If you live in Arizona, do a tax credit...contact roboticsteam60@gmail.com for the form. Up to $400 for a married couple, $200 single and anything in between.
