Everyone,
If you post 10 good reasons to have a medium-fidelity full-size practice field (ramp, carpet, and NO border rails) AND 10 good ways to make access fair to all teams, I'll be more than happy to bring it to FIRST's attention. We've talked about this but to have an "official" practice field could turn into a nightmare.
Here's my favorite reason: Having a practice field in the middle of the pits would allow visitors to get a real "behind the scenes" look at what the teams are doing. It would be as much of an exhibit as it would be a practice field.
Thanks,
Lucien
P.S. It was sunny and 60 degrees in Houston today ... sure to be 100 degrees by April 10
