We're going to have a couple teams with the new control system up there.

We are also going to have a basic bot set up explicitly for rookie teams to compete with. It would probably be a great hands on experience working with it through the event.
Razer, I think your team just got some plans for that weekend. I can't recommend going to an offseason event before your rookie year enough. There's nothing quite like the competition environment. As a bonus, you'll be able to meet up with a bunch of folks who will make it their business to help you guys succeed. Even if the team can't make it as a team, whoever can make it should try to make it.
