This would be an appropriate place to interject that teams should bring everything in their KOP box to the regionals they attend. If I had a nickel for everytime a team told me "Yeah I remember that thing. It's back in our shop on the table" I would be almost rich. As the season progresses, the spares parts kit becomes more depleted. In just this season, I have had teams who did not have a pressure relief valve, a vent valve, any of their additional sidecars or Crio modules, the connectors for the wireless and Crio power or any extra motors. BTW, if you can afford it, brings your own spares. A team yesterday who had a badly leaking vent valve found out how hard it is to find one after five o'clock.
