I so want to go. IRI appears to be where the competition is the stiffest. Hopefully we can get some students to go. At least a drive team and some engineers. I would like to see if we could partner up with 469 again. I will never forget our 2002 alliance at Nationals. We were so close. But im sure there will be so many good matchups. Too many to talk about. I have never been to an IRI event but hopefully this will be my first.

Maybe a mini-match of veteran teams, and maybe a mini-match of new rookie teams Now that would be cool.Besides the robot competition, I was thinking maybe we could do a Photo of the Day Contest, or even a "Best Hair Award". I got the best hair award idea from a team @ Nationals (sorry I can't remember the number) that gave it to our own Sam Harding (pictured to the right of me in my picture). I dunno, speak your ideas ![]() |

IRI Update
We've got some news on the happenings on this years IRI.
The entry fee this year will be between $300-$350. Included in this fee is the 2 day event and a catered dinner, aka hog roast, similar to last year. The event will be open to 40 teams this year. Some teams have expressed interest in bringing 2 robots to compete in this event. In order to get a wider variety of teams, there will be a lottery system for teams that would like to have 2 bots. If we have under 40 teams, that will not take into effect. Registration is set to open on May 12 at 6:00 pm on a website soon to be determined. On a final note, we are going to change the finals a little bit. They are going to be "best 2 of 3." Stay tuned for any additional updates. ![]() |

I think that best two out of three will make the finals more interesting and much more competitive (while still eliminating collusion and all that stuff).
IRI will be the elite off season competition this year - you can bet on that! |

Truck Town and Lady Thunder
Expect to see the twin bots' this year. Hopefully i can regain some dignity for our guys' team by actually beating the girls team this year. Can't wait to see all of you at IRI.
BTW, Good Luck Lady Thunder! |

68 Twins
Being a twin, it's always interesting to see 2 robots (I guess I'm weird like that).
Hopefully there will be two 68 robots again. And there will definelty be Mighty Auk and Mighty Mouse there in full force. ![]() |

What other ideas do you guys have for different things to do w/ the robot? or just new ideas for the IRI in general??
I think 3 on 3 match would be pretty cool... put the extra robot directly back against the wall from the ramp... heh it would be one huge crash at the top of the ramp ![]() |

The field is probably big enough this year to get some 3 on 3 action going. |
