San Diego's gonna be so much fun this year! I can't wait to watch the webcast! Wish I could come down, but then again, I've got my own robot to work on. :) I wanna see 1538's robot in particular, and 399 looks like an awesome team this year.

We had a good time last year, but we will see team Spyder in Seattle ,and we will be the only caili teams there

Re: 2012 San Diego
 

Will be in San Diego with Rookie Team 4276. Can't wait!

The team is anxiously waiting to do some driver tryouts during the practice rounds Friday (they never got much chance to drive it during the build season).

Can someone remind me if robots are allowed on the field for Friday practice rounds if the bot has not *officially* passed all inspection items yet?

Also, in the past practice rounds have sometimes been as long as 5 minutes, are these variety going to be used?

Re: 2012 San Diego
 

The "At the events" section of the manual covers your questions.

You do not have to be inspected to practice in your scheduled practice matches, but must have bumpers.

You must be inspected if you want to enter the filler line for an unscheduled practice match.

Week 1 comes fast... we can't wait for SD!

Re: 2012 San Diego
 

Work is done, packing the trailer tonight and heading for SD tomorrow AM. Will be bringing 5 robots with me in the trailer. Field setup and early load in tomorrow and then competition all weekend. Woo hoo!

P.S. the five robots are from teams in the Inland Empire coming to San Diego.

Re: 2012 San Diego
 

Our robot is in the back of my 57 chevy truck...hope it makes it there! Should be a nice little 500 mile drive. The furthest I've driven my truck is 75 miles from home....

San Diego should be a really fun event, i haven't been down there since 2010. Looking forward to seeing everyone on Friday. :)
