You guys get to deal with Ed Sparks as your Lead Robot Inspector and me as his right hand man.

Go ahead, try to slip a Globe motor by us!

1249, 337 and our rookie team 3514 from West Virginia and 3821 our rookie team from Kentucky will make the trip, and I passed Andy in NC regional inspection last year, so if i build it according to the manual, then i can practice with an approved robot and not still be in line late Thursday evening.
Looking forward to meeting new people and seeing some old friends

No globe motors? Did they change the rules? I guess I should go ahead and read the manual. Next thing I know you'll be telling me that tape is legal.

Tape, legal? Right after they double how much we can spend on an individual item.

Bacon is going to Palmetto, but I got permission to play hookie and go to Smokey Mountain instead. Not sure what volunteer role I'll be assigned, but I'm sure I'll be busy! Can't wait!

My team, 2783, was going to go, but a prospective sponsor who looked promising backed away and we had to settle for Boilermaker only and world.

I will have to watch the webcasts of this...

[Ken Streeter]

Is anybody aware of plans for the Smoky Mountain Regional to be webcast?

The NASA list of FRC Webcasts (http://robotics.nasa.gov/events/2011_frcwebcasts.php) doesn't yet go out to week 5...

The Regional Director told me they were working on one, but I've not heard definite confirmation.

1519 is looking forward to meeting new teams and making new friends this week. If anyone needs robot parts, help with your robot or with software (C++ or Java) please come to our pit and we'll do our best to help out.

You guys should invest in a rolfcopter. It makes the longest of trips insta-short.

I hope the plan is broadcast on Thursday as well. Even though it's just practice, it's still Knoxville action!!!
