Just wondering. I think this is an awesome idea, and just want to be sure by participating in this, that teams are not jeapordizing other important things. (Like shipping their robots home)


But I'm sure you thought of that already right?

Elgin,

Good question. The management at Show Ready Events and Sargent Productions are aware of this challenge. For the 4 teams invited to participate (and if they accept), their robot crates will be transported over to the FIRST Finale so that they can unload their robots to participate and then re-crate the robots once the race is finished. Then, the crates will be taken back to join the other crates to start their journey home.

Who feels the need for speed?

... oh, and there is now a graphic on the performance wheel tread area. You'll have to stop by the AM booth to check this thing out. Did I mention that it spins?
