Yeah I was definitely almost run over at least a couple of times in NJ. In NY i was able to run in the pits safely(relatively that is).

A compliant from last year was that the veteran teams were all on one end of the pit and the rookies were on the opposite end of the pits. They asked that the rookies and the veteran teams, be place next to each other; like big brother little brother (or sisters).

Team and mentors also suggest that rookies be place close to the pit admin so they can hear all the announcement and not be isolated.

That is the reason for the strange numbering system.
Yeah I was told about this. How were the teams assigned though? It was just terrible for me as strategy to find a certain random team at a certain time to talk about an elimination match.
