2016 SoCal Totebot Races
 

I hope everyone is having a great preseason. I know there is a lot of stuff going on, from folks preparing for off-season Stronghold events, to just getting some much needed team organization completed. So asking you to add another challenge to your already busy schedules may seem crazy, but that's what I am doing... but its a purely FUN event. No stress, I promise.

Team 4276 would like to invite you to our 2nd Annual Totebot Races! This year's event will be similar to last year's. There will be time to work on your bot, get some practice laps in (on the new, smaller track), and just goof off. We're also working on adding a couple of challenge games to the regular Grand Prix style race. Here are the details:

Official 2016 Rules: Google Doc
Registration Form: Google Form

Date: Saturday October 29, 2016
Time: 12pm - 3pm (build and pit time before noon)
Cost: Nothing!

Here are a couple of videos from last year's event:

Let me know if you have any questions!

Addendum: we're trying to get a basic FMS set up for the event as running four or more separate radios got a bit glitchy last year.

Come on people!!!! Register.

Re: 2016 SoCal Totebot Races
 

Event cancelled due to me cancelling it.

Re: 2016 SoCal Totebot Races
 

Well, you can't argue with that logic. Guess we better stop modifying our Totebot.

Re: 2016 SoCal Totebot Races
 

It's actually not happening?

Re: 2016 SoCal Totebot Races
 

This is the saddest thread ever. It looks like SenorZ is just talking to himself and then cancelled the event because no one responded.

In all seriousness, it's a shame the event's cancelled.

Re: 2016 SoCal Totebot Races
 

we are still having totebot races. we worked out some participants and it's back on for 12-3.

Re: 2016 SoCal Totebot Races
 

Correct.
Turns out one team actually has 2 totebots, another is working on theirs, etc.

No one registered. Let this be a lesson to you ALL!!! Always fill in the registration form!

Long live totebot races.

Glad this wasn't canceled. Had a great time with Teams 3309, 4141, and 6220.

Here's a little bit of the mayhem:
