The real point of this post is I'm wondering if teams at Nationals would be interested in turning this into a fun competition at our pits. We thought last night of bringing the pole to Nationals and also bringing along a whiteboard to keep track of the top three fastest minibots and they would get prizes at the of Nationals. To keep our pits clear this would only be the minibot and not the deployment.
All I am wondering is if teams would be interested and if they had any ideas for prizes we could give out.

How easy is this to implement for off-season competitions?
