Re: Is defense necessary in practice rounds?

defense... its a touchy subject on practice day...

i know teams that do go all out on thursday and play it like its qualifying which is understandable espically if its their first regional and the drivers need practice on the full field... now full contact ramming in my opinion is not needed and i told my drivers to avoid contact as much as possible... but also there are bots that mainly play defense and thier drivers need to get that practice in when they can....

my best advice is go talk to the other alliances before you start practice and say "We are doing this, this, and this... please do not hit us if you dont have to we are trying to fine tune part X..." and most of the time teams will back off... =D GL
