We have usually on 2 people working on the robot, our drive team, and our Safety Captain in the pits at all times. Other than this we ask the members to go talk to other teams to find out about their robot or scout(the job noone on our team wants to do). We have been pretty sucessful with safety in the past. Two safety award in Philly for the win. But yeah, I really see no need for more than the people listed above in the pits at any time. It is prety small and cramped. With more people than that in the pits it seems to get very hectic and makes it harder for the pit crew to work on the robot. I know people want to know about what is going on with the robot but they can ask the people who were in the pits. And Elgin, how about some heads up for what you will be looking for
. Ha.
