Shouldn't it have been the opposite so that the teams would all receive their kits at roughly the same time?

That was my thought too, but the first teams to post about getting tracking #'s for their control system were from states neighboring NH.

Re: All dressed up and nothing to mount...yet.

Team 368 got their kit before Thanksgiving and we ours arrived in Hawaii (but could not pick up) on Black Friday via ground shipping.
I wonder if NASA grant teams had priority since we didnt even handle the shipping to us.

Re: All dressed up and nothing to mount...yet.

We also got ours before Thanksgiving so I doubt it is based on geographic distance. I'd assume it's based on when payment was received or it's random...

Re: All dressed up and nothing to mount...yet.

We are also a NASA grant team this year, but sadly, we are still awaiting delivery. We haven't even gotten any shipping info yet.

Re: All dressed up and nothing to mount...yet.

I got an e-mail from FIRST that said that shipment is made based upon when payment was made.

Still waiting, but we paid late.....
