Im guessing Sneak Peak has something to do with
Interpeak. Possibly the new FRC control system? Im not sure why Interpeak popped into my head so fast, but I think we use some of their products here at Harris.
But this is going to be annoying:

Unlike in previous years, carts, wagons, trolleys, dollies, handtrucks, slings, litters, etc. will not be admitted into the pit on Wednesday evening. Additionally, pit materials in excess of those needed for the intended tasks described above may be brought into the pit on Thursday, but cannot be stored at the venue overnight on Wednesday.

I just spoke with FIRST and they said NOTHING with wheels will be allowed into the pit on Wednesday evening. They said even if we are trying to carry in batteries, they must be what we can carry in our hands (so even your batteries cant be in a rolling suitcase). I guess in a way it makes sense because they said that there were a lot of issues last year with teams trying to pile things up on top of a single cart so that three people could get it all in... I guess I understand the safety issue, as I saw some of the issues last year, but walking all the way from the Marriot, I really dont want to carry 8 batteries, 4 chargers and all of our drills in our arms. Hmm I guess I need to bring my hiking backpack??
I also asked about the "stored in the venue overnight wednesday" as I wasnt certain the intent of that. We packed a ton of stuff in our crate (including our cart), so I was concerned they were going to police the pits and make us carry it all out. They said we can leave all that there, they just wanted to enforce the not bringing anything extra in.
