Hello everyone,

I hope that this email finds everyone is having a blast of a build session, we sure are. We are a rookie team (#1380) and we need some professional advice on the February 24 shipping date. As the situation would have it, we are located practically around the corner from our regional competition site. Now we are well aware of the February 24 shipping deadline and are set be finsihed this week actually, but is there any rule that says that we have to ship our robot? We would like to deliver our bot personally to the event site on February 24 and save our valuable rookie budget for those all important replacement parts that we are bound to need. Please do not misunderstand that we intend to pass the 2-24-04 deadline, we just wanted to deliver the bot ourselves the 3 miles to the site on the deadline date.

Thanks in advance and good luck...
