River Rage 12!!!
 

Hi everyone!

River Rage, the oldest running off-season competition in FIRST, is heading towards its 12th year!

This years event is being held on November 1st, 2008 at West High School in Manchester NH.

The competition is currently being capped at 24 teams, and promises to fill fast as we have built a good waiting list the past few years.


This year the event features the following...

-24 team, double elimination tournament instead of the standard elimination round format.

-Modified G22 rule and laxed contact rules to help the flow of the game.

-Best Robot Costume and Best Team Costume award for Haloween

-NEW THIS YEAR! Mentor match challenge! Mentors sign up to drive robots and win the mentor prize!

All this plus more is sure to come!

For more information, contact Ed Forcier at elf305@yahoo.com

Hope to see you there!

Mechanical Mayhem, Team 1519, is very much looking forward to River Rage, too! We'll be bringing both our hurdler (Fezzik) and our little lapbot (Speed Racer) to have them compete on an official OverDrive field for the last time.

Go Speed Racer, go Speed Racer, go Speed Racer, go-o!
