Re: Practice Event before Regionals
All of the Wisconsin teams are invited to the Sussex-Hamilton competition in Sussex, WI the Sunday before the ship date. There are usually at least 7 or 8 teams in attendance, as weather is quite the hinderance in February.
It is a great way to figure out what is really practical and reasonable to keep on your robot. Back in 2004, we returned from the practice match that evening and cut off a large steel apparatus that we had not used once in the competition which saved us loads of weight and allowed us to add a few other components and features to our robot which we otherwise might not have been able to fit in.
