we were thinking how much amps we can run for the two min.

last year i believe we were drawing 100+ amps every so often.

Viper,
The curve in the data sheet in the previous post is very similar to the breaker we used last year. Please note that you can draw huge amounts of current for a short period of time. Please also note the "derating" curve. When we are playing in Houston this may need to be considered. Teams that are running fine in northern regionals may have problems in the heat and humidity of Texas.
