There will be several NC teams in SC this weekend. Worth watching. |

Re: 2012 North Carolina Regional
FIRST Team 1086 Blue Cheese is very excited to be attending the NC Regional. This will be my first time heading down to the Dorton Arena. From what my students are telling, NC is a great venue filled with some of the nicest folks around. I can't wait to experience this hospitality myself!

Re: 2012 North Carolina Regional
Team 587 is pumped about the NC regional. We just got back from Peachtree and had a great time there.
Welcome to all the teams that are coming. We are looking forward to seeing several old friends and making some new ones. We are especially eager to see our old friends on 122. We have attended a regional together all of the 12 years that 587 has existed. Good luck to all the teams going to Palmetto this weekend. I hope you bring home some hardware. |

Re: 2012 North Carolina Regional
The Mech Tech Dragons are pumped. The kids are psyched. I can't stop thinking about it. The mentors are excited. We're ready for the Reign of Fire to hit Raleigh. If you're going to Palmetto this weekend, we will be watching.

Re: 2012 North Carolina Regional
1598 is looking forward to returning to Dorton Arena. We learned a great deal at the VA Regional and are ready to play. We will (try) be on a bridge every match. Hopefully the center one -- hope we get partners that will be willing to go with us.

Re: 2012 North Carolina Regional
Most of all I'm looking forward to seeing the New Hampshire contingent, especially 166, which was my original team! I'll be wearing my (can I call it vintage yet?) Chop Shop jacket! Hopefully I can treat you guys to some good carolina BBQ

Re: 2012 North Carolina Regional
There are a shocking number of successful teams coming up/down/all around to NC. A lot of robots that have gone deep into eliminations, and perennial RCA/EI teams will be featured here.
First time I've gone south for a regional. What's around there for fun? Good places to eat? |

Re: 2012 North Carolina Regional
1771 is working furiously to raise the funds, so we can attend.
All of our kids were disappointed that we lost at Peachtree (Sorry 1311 and 2815) due to a transmission failure, and we turned that disappointment into a drive for money! |

Re: 2012 North Carolina Regional
^The North Carolina doesn't have an open capacity. In fact, I think they're over-booked...
Have you contacted HQ about this? I would love to meet another great team, but I don't want you all to work for something you might not be able to get. |

Re: 2012 North Carolina Regional
Yes, North Carolina is already full. I know 2655 had a tough time getting in.
I wish all teams attending good luck! |

Re: 2012 North Carolina Regional
The North Carolina regional is back down to 52 teams. It looks like we lost one of our NC rookies.

Re: 2012 North Carolina Regional
1519 is looking forward to returning to North Carolina for a 2nd visit! We had a great time in the inaugural year of the regional and are eager to renew acquaintance with the friends we made in 2010.
Just ten more days until we set out on the drive from New Hampshire to North Carolina! |
