Competition Pit Size

[sloc-nasty]

Does anyone know what size pit (for parking your trailer) each team is going to be given for competition?

I can't recall off my head, is this changed for this year or has it always been this size?

[magicweed]

Pretty sure it's been the standard size for the last few years. Ever since 100+ teams started showing up, the event site started getting taxed for space. They also implemented a no tractor trailer rule this year. Everyone planning on bringing one should take heed.

so we can still park our rental Ryder truck at the paddock area right?

[magicweed]

According to the PDF newsletter they send out, we can park our transport vehicles in the paddocl area, as long as they don't extend past the specified dimensions.

I doubt they'll walk about with a tape measure and kick you out for being a bit over, but anything extreme I'm sure they'll have issue with. As if we weren't cozy enough with our neighboring teams as is.

I wonder if USF's party bus meets the regs?

It'd be a shame if it didn't. That thing rocks.

Hmmm. It is pretty sweet, but looks longer than 37', especially if you don't want to work on your car on the roof.

It does attract a lot of hot girls at football tailgate parties.
