[TotalChaos]

Hey everyone! I have a question...

Our team is not competing until week 5 in the Arizona regional.. As such we have been building a second robot to practice with in the meantime. We would very much like to try driving on the regolith surface, however we do not have any of the floor tiles and do not know of any teams near by that have more than one or two tiles.

It just so happens that next weekend a few of our team members are going to San Diego to watch the regional there (just watching, not competing). We were contemplating bringing our practice bot with us, which brings me to my question:

If we brought our robot with us would we be able to use the practice field at the competition? (Obviously as long as none of the teams actually competing are using it, we don't want to take any time away from competitors)

So what's your input on this? Is it legal? Are there rules against it? Venue rules that prohibit it? Would you consider it rude or look upon it negatively if we tried to use the field?

We are just considering our options! We don't want to force our way into using something we really shouldn't be!

Thanks for any input!
