Sounds like you can do the exhibition, just not make a big production out of it. Disappointing to be sure, but perhaps fairer to the other teams at the competition:)

Re: 2009 Palmetto Regional
 

I still come back to the practice rounds. Things at Peachtree were first come first served. The first 4 rounds at Peachtree were no shows, and I mean all 6 teams. We will be making mods, but should be done by 10am if all goes well.
Our pit will be tucked away in our top secret hiding spot at Palmetto. If you ask the right people you may be able to find us. No, seriously, we will most likely be where the practice field was last year along with 3 other lucky teams. Make sure you stop by and see us:D

Re: 2009 Palmetto Regional
 

Oh well. We're still having the same teams. We can HAPPEN to keep score, and HAPPEN to keep it up.

Re: 2009 Palmetto Regional
 

The MC and Announcer have the OK from the event staff to be practicing and checking sound levels at that time as well.

It's supposed to rain all day tomorrow - does anyone know how much covered area there is around the venue? We're going to be unloading all of our stuff around 7:30 and I guess standing around outside until the pits open at 8:30. I would at least like to keep our electronics and computers dry.

Re: 2009 Palmetto Regional
 

LATEST INFO:
The match durring the news will be somewhat low key. Be prepared between 5:00 and 6:30. Announcer, and scoring look to be available.
We may be able to get the t-shirt launcher indoors. The event would like to give out Lunacy shirts, and we offered this way to deliver them.
There is a large tunnel that leads into the venue, and will keep things dry. The road that is used to unload also has a large tent and practice field on it. So unloading will be done, and then trailers will have to u-turn to get out. Shouldn't be a problem. Make sure to come in from the East.
The 5th Gear simulator will be making an appearance at another venue, and not Palmetto.
The pits will be along the line of 9'X9', the overflow teams are the ones that registered later, and their pits will be more like 10'X10'
