The so called high budget teams have access to computers that will image and test the ideas ( students participate ) This means that there is still an advantage, even more so, because if a low budget team destroys a component, they most likly have less resources to manufacture repair units from prints whereas if they had the component in their hands for several days they can repair at a much lower cost and not have to build an additional component.

I may be alone on this one but ..........

I would prefer that there be no restriction on having the robot during the competition. If the season is 12 weeks start( kick-off ) to nationals then we use all our talents to evolve the best robot possible in that time period - unrestricted.

Just think of the awesome robots at the nationals!

If you only went to 1 regional and the national then you have practice and refinement time. If you go to many then.. well other than time in competition it is the same for all teams.

My three cents worth ( inflation ).
