Michael, I understand your interest in doing that, however, the decision to only allow each team to register with just one robot had already been made in order to ensure that there are enough slots for all interested teams and potential pre-rookie teams. While TRR is not an invitation-only event, the hope is that we can build this competition up to eventually be much like IRI.

It is of course up to you and your team entirely which students you decide to have drive your robot.
