That is the first thing we thought of when we saw the schedule. Compete in the UTC New England, 3 days maintenance and repair, ship Tuesday, and then get on a plane for the Nationals Wednesday.

We thought it might be to our advantage if a group of the New England teams got together and rented a large trailer. We could all meet in a central location, load by 5pm Tuesday, and split the cost accordingly. This would also allow for all tools etc.. to also be shipped. It is just one suggestion, I have no idea what a semi may cost. I know of others that are leaving for the Nationals on Tuesday so they will not even have the full 3 day M&R period.

Any suggestions???????
