I was thinking. Every competition I've been to seems to organize the pits numerically. That means all the rookie teams are grouped together at one end. WHAT IF!!! The pit assignments were folded so that the most experienced team was right next to the newest rookie and so on. Now that would be great. It would put the rookies in direct contact with teams that can help. It would also mean that the experienced teams would be close to their resources when the help is needed. This might be the time to contact the event coordinators and see if this can be arranged!
This has been Standard Operating Procedure in the West for at least the past three years. It eliminates the "rookie gheto" quite effectively. Though I did like what they did in Atlanta last year. All of the rookies in all divisions were on the main aisles. So while they were all grouped together, they were in a prominent place and you were practically forced to walk past them. Either way helps get them the attention they need.
