3) We got IR interference from somewhere within the stadium. We would walk our robot around on its cart with the IR enabled, and every once in a while it would get a signal. This caused all sorts of problems in autonomous and two of our laps did not get counted during qualification matches. This happened to more than just our team.
4) $10 parking
5) The PA system within the pit was never loud enough. We could never hear the announcements and had to rely on sundial for the matches, and when other teams needed help, we never knew.
6) They let us in late on Thursday and Friday


oh well
Be glad you had a quarter of a field. SVR had ~1/2 an overpass, and 15 feet or so.
