-At FLR-
We only tipped once, and we have a solid max dimension drive base... we also have a 5 foot tall tower that shuttles up and down... we tipped with the shuttle up (Sorry Paul!)

We *accidentally* tipped 494 once and 747 (I think) once. Both were unintentional. Some how, 494 got back up and came after us

In one of the elims, 229 was tipped directly onto their arm but managed to get back up (boy was that exciting)

As a driver, I didn't get to watch many matches so Im sure there were a few other tips, but nothing as high as a 1/4 of the matches.

They were almost always fast and ready at FLR. There was only one occasion where the auto-loader guy "fell asleep". It was kinda funny cause Paul tells me and my driver to go the autoloader. Then he starts shouting "AUTOLOADER AUTOLOADER!" and we were just like "hey we're goin we're goin!". Then we realized the guy wasnt paying attention and Paul was *trying* to get his attention.
