Under the banner photo, next to "home" there is a block that says "2012 IRI Application". Click that.

Is the submitting suggestions for other teams up yet? I was unable to find it...
217 is already pre-qualified by winning last year, but there are a few teams we can think of to submit the suggestions for.

Can students recommend teams? Or only mentors?

[Hallry]

1676 just applied. Now working on numerous support applications for other teams =).

[Ryan Wilmes]

868 is applied and is hoping to end Indiana's five-year drought.

I am undefeated from when they didn't count (2010) and am looking forward to playing again if they bring it back!

Wave Robotics has applied!

Just imagine, a Texas and West Coast matchup, 1717/254/987 vs 118/148/1477... or maybe you'd like to see 67/469/33 play 1114/2056/188? Oh, the possibilities at IRI .

However, I fully support placing more emphasis on getting in lots of qualification matches. More matches means better rankings.

624 and 231 are two other Texas teams that should be considered. We won the Bayou Regional with one and Alamo with the other. 231 had great strategy all season and 624 just had an awesome robot.

Are teams of the pity.. I mean, FIRST Lottery invited as well?

All teams are able to apply.

Hey Chris, the schedule page on the website has the wrong dates listed by each day (shows July 20-22, s.b. 19-21). It had me confused for a minute.

Of course all the former drivers want to bring back the Mentor Match.

I prefer to keep my perfect (1-0) driving record intact. I try to stay as far away from driving the robot as possible, so I don't expose myself for the terrible driver I actually am.

[Chi Meson]

Aluminum Falcons (2168) will be applying, and we are looking forward to seeing the Pi-oneers again.

Side note: has anyone considered that maybe the red bumpers are the problem? How about green bumpers?

Just make sure you bring your spare arm. I can't imagine you would be gentle with it.

[Jeff Waegelin]

The Robowranglers have applied... 148 is looking forward to making a return to Indy!

[waitwhat?]

Team 869 PowerCord has put in their application! Looking forward to (hopefully) making our IRI debut!
