There were mentors and students working side-by-side. The pit got crowded really really fast, so there were only about 5 or 6 of us working at most. We laid out a plan ahead of time though and organized the group into pairs so we could attack each area as quickly as possible. The rest of the team were either working with the scouting/strategy team in the stands or with the drive team wandering around in the pits.
Our driver said it was worth adding...and you could see the added "boost" the machine got when the fan was turned on driving across the field.. We never used the empty cell holder anyways, so any extra thrust out of the fan was more than we had in the beginning!
