Registration Instructions:

Just go to www.team341.com , then click on the Ramp Riot link on the left side panel. There is no need to send money at this point. We just want to know which teams are attending so that we can plan the best event possible.

PLEASE NOTE: The registration page might temporarily state that it is Ramp Riot 2007. Feel free to use this form anyway. I will receive it. The site will be updated to read 2008 very shortly.

Last year we had 36 teams and sold out in August, so please register early. Spots will be temporarily held until June for regular teams that have attended Ramp Riot more than twice.

its too bad its only for a day. it it was similar to the 3 day FIRST regional event, we would sign up.
How do you folks handle drayage/crates if we were to attend?

[Danny McC]

I am sure that our mentors over at 816 will register. And we will see you guys in November. If not at nationals first.

Mr. Ostrow,

If we want to volunteer, should we do as we have done in years' past... aka just email you with information?

We were going to try something a little more organized this year, But just email is fine for now.

We don't forget what a great job you guys did as MCs. You are welcome at Ramp Riot anytime!

If you are considering registering for RR 2008, you should probably do it relatively soon. We currently have less available spaces than we have repeat customers.

Im pretty sure you bring your own robot somehow. You can't ship your robot there. Last year, we put everything in the back of a trailer in the freezing cold, and drove it there from our school.
