Inspections:

Coaches, please help speed up our inspection time the morning of by checking your students robots prior to the day of the event and have the team members update the Firmware to the brain. Also, make sure students robots will only have one visible color for the license plate showing at a time. Inspection must include poly sheet diagram for the inspectors to ensure within limits.  If anything is in question of legality, please be able to prove that it is.
