Re: Should technical mentors be allowed to help repair robots during finals?
Good question.

From my experience, it really depends on the venue. Some regionals have room for a "pit crew" to join the drive team in the queing area. Some regionals don't have this luxury.

It is great to have the ability to have a pit crew available to work on the robot between matches in the finals. Last year, at the Championships in Atlanta, 3 pit crew members were allowed to join the drive team for the elimination matches.
