Re: What are you guys going for on the rack?

Team #8 is going to go only for the first and second row. The reason for this is because not only was it going to be hard for us to make something score on the top with our design. But because we know so many people are going to be able to score on all three, we thought we'd perfect something that can score on the bottom two. If you do really well on the bottom two, then you can still score a lot of points.

I think that being able to score on all three goals is a great idea, we're just taking a different approach.

Re: What are you guys going for on the rack?

We (so far as I know) are planning on being able to score on all three. Obviously it would be quicker to score on just the bottom and middle (closer to ground = less distance to travel = less time used) but we figure that leaving your options open is always a good idea. (all plans are subject to change without notice, they don't always keep me informed of changes until the last moment)
