Re: Batteries
We'll be taking four legal batteries (the 2007 and 2008 batteries), and we will most likely drag along one or two of the old Exide batteries for the pit. Last year, we made it through Palmetto (quarterfinals included) on two batteries--and that's with a lot of pushing. One of ours from that year seemed to show its age during a recent demo, but I feel confident that we'll be alright with the smaller amount of pushing in this year's game*.
*I never said that pushing wouldn't happen, just that I don't expect it to be as common as we experienced when playing Rack 'N Roll.
