Seen on the way home from IRI...

IIRC 1529 had that sort of problem loading into IRI around 2009-2010 (can't find the post to save my life). Being an Indy team (half ways around 465 more or less), they used an open bed pickup truck to haul their bot, uncovered... and while waiting to load in, a pop up shower came in... while most of their electronics were dried out by Friday morning, memory tells me that they had to borrow a few replacements to get running again.

I can verify that was 2010. Many thanks to 829 for letting us borrow their heat gun, which we used as a blow dryer, and 1741 for loaning us their PDB.

The full story is best told over a friendly dinner.
