According to this: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/papers/2251, 3 mentors over 21 and 1 pre-collage aged coach.

Any chance you could make it 20 and 208 days?

In other words, nice try, Shane. And if there's experience involved, you're not driving...

Usually one of the rules for the mentor's match is that you could not have been on the drive team as a student in any capacity, but I say "bring it".

[JaneYoung]

I think the mentors match should include cute older-than-average blondes that have never driven a robot before. But, then, I would never say 'bring it' to Paul Copioli in any driving or coaching capacity, unless I did some extreme wardrobe planning in regard to being trounced. Total.

... just sayin'

All we have is an age rule - over 21 on the day of the event.

ID required.

So...what you're saying is.....I'M ELIGIBLE TO PLAY AGAIN!?!?!?

I'll pay my team's entry fee...travel fees...hotel fees.....under the table fees....whatever it takes to get back in the game!

Not so fast... I think this excludes you "Team 71: '99, '00 (Driver), '01 (Driver, Animator), '02 (Driver, Animator)"...

Nothing about experience... Just remember, I think you're eligible too, Alex.

Only if a team would allow me to drive the bot... (I was back up each of my 3 years on a HS team... and lead pit guy)

Probably the saddest thing to me about this is that I won't be yelled at by good friends of mine. Andy Baker



We can still yell at you if it will make you feel better.

[Pat McCarthy]

I'll offer my driving services, but I think 67 has capable mentors already.

[GaryVoshol]

So for these mentor matches - who you gonna get to ref? Must be students, right? And only one non-student over-21 gets to go to the box to yell and argue (erm, question and discuss).

Stu, I think you'll be great reffing the main show. After all, you have the color-coordinated hard hat.

Trust me. You don't want him touching the robot.
