    I think they put stronger motors in it so it goes faster
    They took it apart and rebuilt it with different parts

      I must say, I hate people abusing and destroying robots, but this is great idea. I like it.

      ​@@robovaccollectorI also hate people abusing robots, but I love seeing people modifying them to go through obstacle courses and take on special challenges.
