Re: Is defense necessary in practice rounds?
Defense during the practice rounds at BAE was fairly significant, we were actually flipped during one and one of our friends, Team Discovery, had a gearbox broken from being rammed by an oppenent.

The more practice time teams have to get "dialed in" on thursday means for better competition friday and saturday. If they spend all day thursday in the pits fixing stuff that's broken during practice rounds they may never be able to compete up to their full potential when it counts.
