[quote=maltz1881;704028... I think it is going to be a ton of fun. We are doing things a little different. We will have donated prizes like batteries, tools etc instead of trophies. Kettering who is the top engineering school out there has graciously donated the space for this fun event.[/QUOTE]
I hear that many teams like CD, WildStang, Martians, and company have so many trophys that they use them for door stops and hammers.

Too bad there wasn't a Rookie Regional to start them off right.
The RR now has 23 registered teams. They only need one more (and for all to show up) to fill the elimination rounds.
One more rookie team out there should not pass up such a deal. You
will get to play in the eliminations. You
will get at least 16 qualifying matches*. That's two regionals worth of playing time, and all for $500!!!!
*calculated using a very generous ten minute separation between match. The usual separation is seven minutes.
