2009 LA regional - about size of the pits

[sloteera]

Well,

I read all the posts and, I think that the better pit's project is basing in 8' x 8' (2,40m x 2,40 in brazilian measurement).

We already participate on the NJ Regional and two times in Championship, and always we had many problems to mounting a good pit.

These year, we are planing how we can travel with the all important itens that may be useful, but isn't easy get in on the airplane with the itens.

The only way that we found to make a good pit, is building the robot's box and use it totally opened inside de pit, for this we need to know the size.


But, I'd like to thanks everybody that answer me and wish a good season for everybody.

Thank you so much!

PS: I hope that you can understood me..

I think everyone's said this already, but...

For the past two years, L.A. has had 10'x10' pits. Last year was a bit more cramped because of construction for "American Gladiators", but the regional moved to another, larger venue.

So it should be safe to assume that this year's pit space will be 10'x10' as well. However, you should e-mail the regional director (don't have his/her e-mail on hand right now) just to be safe.
