Go to Post I trust my life to a 3650 pound rolling chunk of metal every day that, if some silicon failed in just the right (wrong?) way, would splat me pretty quickly, but I have faith in engineering. On the other hand, it doesn't turn me upside down. - DonRotolo [more]

Definitely Regional CAD.
It's an activity closely tied to the Engineering process that goes largely unrewarded or encouraged. 1600 teams waiting all year to possibly be in the Final 5 at the Championship is a discouraging prospect for kids that busted their tails making incredibly detailed layouts.
You could argue that the reward should be in the finished product (and it is for the most part) but that could be said about every other award we strive to win in FIRST.
Lets give these kids doing CAD something local to shoot for.
