At Great Lakes Regional we (226 were having a lot of troubles with our arm gearbox). It was working at the time but we knew it was rather fragile and not up to elimination standards. The drive team talked with the engineers and the whole team talked about it over lunch and we decided that should we get picked we would decline. We were however, not put in that position.

PS- For all of you midwest teams we spent saturday fixing our arm and we are now ready and raring to go.
