Re: When did you get your kit?
We received ours a week after kickoff due to some federal revenue & customs issues (sigh). What bothers me is that this isn't the first time it's happened...and i don't see why any measures haven't been taken yet to avoid future occurrences.

Re: When did you get your kit?
And I thought we had a hard time here in israel because the kickoff is a day later and we get the kits a day later....

sounds like FIRST/FedEX need to get their act together regarding this! this means that some teams have just 5 weeks build time! that's 20% more pressure!

Israel has a faster clock than U.S.. Is your robot due on the same day as ours on your clock or our clock? I was just wondering if that had to do anything with what happened your team.
