Re: 2011 DC Regional...
I really want to give a shout out to Team 1511.
We had taken most of our machine apart on Thursday morning to replace a broken roll pin on our Super Shifter. Our machine was literally in 150 pieces on Thursday morning. We had forgotten to pack the replacement roll pin and they came to our aid with lots of choices and even tried to help replace it. While they didn't have what we needed they sure tried above and beyond.
After we had made that repair and re-assembled our machine as we were doing a "systems check" before inspection we broke an axle and again took most of the machine apart on Thursday afternoon for a second time.
After this second reassembly all of our encoders stop working, after I spent time doing diagnostics but unable to find any problem we called out for help and again Team 1511 sent someone to our aid. While neither of us could identify the problem again they went above and beyond in trying to help.
After all of these issue we actually made it out on the field Friday, and reached the semi's, Murphy was sure looking over or shoulders.
So Thanks Team 1511 we really appreciated everything you did.
PS. The mentor that came over to help me with our encoder issue send me a PM as I did find the problem, but you'd never believe it.
