If anything, I'd rather we get rid of the withholding allowance!
I think we as mentors would be given more time. With an extended build season teams would not have to put in 14-18 hour days because we would not have to help the students produce a 140 lb complex machine in such a tight window. Looking at FRC as compared to Best we defiantly put in a less time ratio per lb.
