One for each team, and there would need to be an operator for each team... and thus the need for an extra drive team member. We'll find out soon enough

Agreed. Especially after seeing this wheel voucher.

You mean LogoMotion? Overdrive had placing trackballs on the overpass for an endgame, no minibots.

I actually did mean overdrive, where minibots would be playing some version of it, like the minibots score by making laps around the feild.

Does this really mean that we have a 2-hour window the day of kickoff (during the kickoff) to purchase 4 radial-loading and/or crown linear guide rollers made of stainless or carbon steel? That's a heck of a niche market we're dealing with here.

EDIT: Correction, crown rollers come in polymer as well as carbon steel, but the picture is of a steel radial, so it's not so clear what the bounds of the offer are.

I also JUST saw the comment on the bottom of the voucher page. http://www2.bwc.com/firstvoucher

*Track is available on FIRST® Choice at Andy Mark

I'm not terribly familiar with what AndyMark First Choice usually stocks but I thought it was interesting that they emphasize it.

Obviously a plan 4 years in the making just so we won't suspect it at this exact moment
