FreeBSDboy is an unknown quantity at this point
At the Manchester, NH regionals many teams (including ours) were having controler reset problems from seemingly unknown sources. The resets happened towards the ends of matches.

I don't remember who suggested it, but the idea was put forth that static buildup from the rubber tires on the carpeting might have been a problem.

Many of the teams attached grounding straps from the chassis of their robots to drag on the floor and the problem more or less dissapeared.
