Houston Robot Remix

[Mr. Rip]

The Houston Robot Remix is an off-season event in Houston, Texas celebrating its third year. For the past two years, the event was supported with funding and volunteers from the Lone Star Regional Committee.

For 2014, the event is planned and organized by FRC Teams 1477 Texas Torque and 624 CRyptonite with lots of help from our friends in the Houston Robotics Community. The event is funded by the registration fees paid by the participating teams. Any funds remaining after expenses are met will go to local charities.

Registration Link

We are allowing for 32 teams with a minimum of eight matches per team. Alliances will consist of four robots. Plan on the same rule modifications as IRI. The top eight teams are not allowed to select each other. The selection sequence will be 1 - 8 then 8 - 1. The backup robots will be randomly assigned from the robots remaining. We will be working with FIRST in Texas and the Texas Workforce Commission to arrange grants for rookie teams from Texas to pay their registration fee. Once a team has registered, they will receive an invoice via email for the registration fee.

When
All qualification and elimination rounds will happen on November 8. Field setup and load in will be November 7. Teams may also load in Saturday morning, November 8.

Where
Oak Ridge High School
27330 Oak Ridge School Road

Who
In the past, only teams from the Lone Star Region were allowed to participate. This year, we would love to see teams from all parts of Texas and those willing to make the drive (or flight) from outside the state.

Cost
$300 (if paid before September 12)
$350 (late registration)
