Cars!

cars with pop up headlights are the best, change my mind.

There is one car, at least, that is better.

Not the best for reliability. Pop-up headlights are an additional point of failure.

speaking of cars, you can make your own EV! Just stick a chair on an FRC KOP chassis, wire it up to a cortex, and boom! electric transport vehicle! We have an asphalt basketball court near our room so we would drive it up there. It was pretty hazardous because the cortex interface had some latency issues, but super fun, 9/10 would recommend.
E: with around 200lb boys and four Mini CIM motors the drive base had some considerable acceleration, but was still zippy enough to recommend. I would use a chair with a strap to tie the driver down and a helmet.

I ought to try that…

If you had to pick between have the Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 10, or the new Subaru WRX Sti, which car would you guys pick?

I can agree that any car with gulwing door (or falcon wing doors if your a Tesla guys) are super cool.

Evo 10, I’ve driven a 2019 STI and it’s honestly a bit lack luster

@DRow Can you lock this thread? This has nothing to do with Vex… This is literally a conversation about… Cars??? On the vex forum???

It’s in #edr-general-discussion:chit-chat-rumor-mill. There’s nothing inherently controversial or questionable about this thread. It’s fine.

I don’t think that matters. This isn’t the team group chat where we don’t even talk about the robot. This is vex forums. And you guys are talking about cars. Really?

Let them talk about what they want, it’s in chit-chat/rumor mill. If you aren’t interested in the discussion, there’s nothing obligating you to read it.

In fact, you can even see the topic to Muted and it won’t show up in your feed at all:

It’s the same thing as the human robot thread. Of course human robots aren’t legal.

Yes. Human robots

Yeah but that was joking around about a human ROBOT and it was about how they would compete at comps. This is about your favorite car, it has nothing to do with robotics

Cars are robots that run on who knows what.
I didnt rlly make this thread for myself, since I’m not much of a car guy, but we were derailing another thread, so I figured I’d make this
Now where were we on cars?

You can move on without worrying about it.
