2013 St. Louis Regional
 

Looks like it's time to start getting excited for the St. Louis regional. So who all is going this year? Any newcomers?

1444 will be there in force, as usual. We are excited to try out our Kinect target tracking system. Anyone interested in that should stop by, we'll be happy to talk about it. :D

1094 SLR champion. I'm calling it.

Re: 2013 St. Louis Regional
 

Ballsy call. 1985, 1208, and 931 probably have other ideas.

GKC and STL are on the same weekend this year, so there is not the usual cross-state attendance.

Re: 2013 St. Louis Regional
 

And 1288, and 1706, and 4256...

Re: 2013 St. Louis Regional
 

...and 3397.

Re: 2013 St. Louis Regional
 

I'm sorry to not be going to STL this year. It's a fun tournament with some great teams; well-run and in a nice facility. We've made some good friends on the far side of the state; it's too bad GKC is the same week this year. And I'll miss working with Rich & the rest of your fantastic inspecting crew.

And, I'll be missing the best volunteer food in FRC. :ahh:

Good luck to everybody, and have a great week.

Re: 2013 St. Louis Regional
 

Basically...there are lot of powerhouse teams at SLR, just like every year. Even though SLR isn't one of the bigger regionals, it always delivers some good competition.

Re: 2013 St. Louis Regional
 

And 3885 wants to shock some teams before they can "call" the win. :p I am excited to see the many different drive systems in Saint Louis this year. So far I have seen kiwi 3397, swerve 1444, mecannum 1208, 4 wheel KOP 3862, and 6 wheel pneumatic 3885. I have a feeling that Saint Louis should be fairly close this year.

Re: 2013 St. Louis Regional
 

Ha. I'm just making that call because I mentored one of the students on their team. :p It'll be a tough competition, and there'll be great matches to watch.

Re: 2013 St. Louis Regional
 

I hope we can get our swerve steering working like we want. We will probably spend most of Thursday working on that. Should be pretty sweet if we get it right.

Re: 2013 St. Louis Regional
 

Oh yeah, 3284 should come out gunning as well, they always do.

Can't wait to see everyone there! Is anybody else going to the Friday night team social?

Re: 2013 St. Louis Regional
 

There's a friday night social?

Re: 2013 St. Louis Regional
 

Your coach should have gotten an email... I know ours did.

Re: 2013 St. Louis Regional
 

I'll be sure to ask, it sounds like alot of fun :D :D :D :D
