Re: Jaguar VS Victor
Many regionals have Jaguar support staff but Victors don't have the same issues that require support staff.
You can usually find teams with spare Jags or Victors but if they don't then spare parts only has Jags. Getting a Jag from spare parts requires either exchanging a broken one or paying for a new one. I'm sorry I don't remember which one it is exactly now and it could change in the future. It isn't really a big deal to switch between a Jag and Victor at a competition but the change in size and weight could make a difference.
Victors are normally a bit cheaper.
A Jaguar rep I spoke with said they would be coming out with a new version soon (hopefully for next year) that would be more durable and fix some of the problems. This would also make it slightly more expensive (like a dollar or two). If you were considering going with Jaguars I would recommend that you wait to see what they come up with.
I prefer Victors but I'm a mechanical person so that extra weight, size and lack of durability that comes with the Jaguar isn't worth the extra computing power which most teams don't even use.
