There won't magically be enough time when Stop Build Day joins the Shipping Crate and IFI Control System as icons of an era gone-by. I would confidently wager that lack of time will always be part of the FIRST challenge. You can always make things a little bit better if only you just had a few more hours.

With the a 45 lb withholding allowance and the games you can play with COTs parts, I'm sure there will be teams that bring an entire new superstructure install it Thursday. Meanwhile we unbagged for a demo today at one of our sponsors, but our best driver couldn't strut her stuff since it might be called driver practice? It all just seems a little bit silly.
