Separately from whether you become an FTC AP and from whether or not you organize an FTC tournament(s); you can host tournaments using Vex machines and whatever rules IFI/Vex announce for their competition that is separate from FTC .
Does that help? Were you aware of this dichotomy?

I was aware and did not include it in my post. In fact I was extremely fortunate to have been working the FTC fields at the championship event in Atlanta where they demonstrated the new system. It is an interesting hybrid of sorts, speaking of the new system.
So my question remains, would there be an interest by current FTC teams to conduct a demonstration type tournament in San Antonio, Texas? I am currently working on an event to be held at the AT&T center, home of the San Antonio NBA "Spurs" on October 13th. A city councilwoman is organizing an event where I hope to have FRC, FTC, and Lego NXT robots on display. Best way to display them is to have a competition. The Quad Quandry elements appeared to be simple enough to construct.
Thanks,
