Way to go Thomas.......
Would love to buy you a Beer ( or Dew ) for that one.
Look me up in Florida, Nick team 237, were staying at the all stars. OK.

: : Does anybody know why they changed the rule back?

: I suspect that it was to maximize the amount of pain felt by the teams, so as to distract us from the fact that this year isn't really a competition in the conventional sense of the word.

: In as much as SPI has a lousy selection of gears in 25 pitch (many of which weren't in stock), it was certainly limiting.

: I sincerely hope that FIRST not only goes back to last years rules on materials, but extends them so that teams without great shop support have at least some reasonable options for designing their machines...no team should have to compromise their design because they can't fabricate something that anyone with any sense would go to the local hardware store to buy!

: I also hope they go back to us actually competing...
