Who's ready for San Jose?

[luciano841]

NOOOOOO
due to some problems we might not end up going
so sad


i hope we still are going
ill find out tommorrow for sure

[Jeff Sharpe]

Montana's only team, #473, is ready and rarin to go!
No goat cheese this year since food handouts have been nixed.
Maybe we'll bring containers for bolt storage.

We're staying in Santa Cruz to maximize our beach (and boardwalk) time since FIRST doesn't want us working in all-night metal shops even if they are open to all teams. Oh well. We plan to hook up a skimboard with 2 runners for carving and rooster-tailing in the surf! Ya'll are always welcome to come join us there for a look at old surfer's paradise! There's a surfboard museum at the point, and its the closet decent swim you'll find in the Pacific.

We're also considering attempting a hand rebuilt on Thursday so we can use big blue irrigation work gloves to match the new cowboy hat we're bringing for our robot "Dixie". We hope to be even more serious competitors than we were in Portland (where only a couple bad breaks kept us from stardom).

Excited to see you all next week! J# et al

The problem is is that we don't have enough money. We're trying to get some but we'll probably have only enough for the drivers, human players, and the pit crew(about 8 people). We won't have the team to cheer them on. We might not even go at all to save the money for next year. I really want to go though and so does the rest of the team. Wish us luck!

Bummer to hear that. For us, we all to pay our own way.

To team delphi, we're arriving there early in the morning. Do you guys still wanna do something together on wednesday sometime?

Good luck to everyone going.

Well, from my student stand point, I have no clue... You'll have to talk to our coaches about that....
