Re: What do YOU want in the Kit of Parts?

I would like to see better availability of batteries through the ordering system, the last two years they have been sold out before we can get our order in.

I agree with some of the others - we would really like to see some 80/20 availability through FIRST Choice. We never use the aluminum provided in the kit, but we use a lot of 80/20 extrusion each year.

More Victors (and less Jaguars) would also be good for us. The Jaguars have some additional capability, but we have had failures in competition whereas the Victors have always worked. Providing less in the kit and more availability through FIRST Choice would work for us.
