The recordings for previous years has been nonexistent...

We were not in charge of web casting 10K lakes in 2011.

We will be archiving both events this year and putting them up on TBA as soon as possible after the event.

What an awesome event! We won't forget it anytime soon, as we had Kinect working for 8 pt. autonomous and massive bridge balances. Thanks go to 2177 (Robettes), 2512 (Duluth East Daredevils), 111, 2225, 2220, and anyone else we may have missed for excellent double balances, and to every alliance partner for being excellent and easy to work with. Congratulations to 111, 2512, 4266 for an amazing show in the finals. The #2 alliance had an excellent autonomous program. And the #5 alliance, as the overwhelming crowd favorites, gave us the best matches of the day. I loved it all (and we seeded 20 places better than last year).

However I have one major concern about the northstar venue as a whole: While traffic flow has improved from last year with the addition of a walking lane in the front rows, one entrance only creates a needless traffic jam and makes some pits much less accessible.

On behalf of WildStang, I want to give a shout out to every team at the North Star regional. You all were very kind and were amazing to be around, I hope to see many of you in the future. I would like to also thank 2512 and 4226 for being such amazing alliance partners, very proud of 4226 doing so well especially at their first regional.

Another shout out to the the Number 1 alliance of 2883,3293, and 1816. You were a fantastic alliance. I am sad that things did not work out between us and 3293, but you guys were fantastic and I look forward to competing with you guys in future events.

One last shout out to 1816, fantastic job at winning the Chairman's award. Your team really did deserve it and I wish you the best of luck at Championship.

2175 The Fighting Calculators plan to provide both webcasts at their website

Can't wait for Thursday!

2175 will also be at North Star offering their beak to check other teams' batteries. Just stop by our pit and someone can help you out.
