Hey guys can ya help?
Hi all...
I got a favor to ask, ya see, my F.I.R.S.T. Robotics team (team 241 Derry, NH Pinkerton Academy) is trying to put together a "anything with a engine" show as a fundraiser which is still in the works, we gotta cough up $6,000 just to register then another 6-7k for parts and travel costs....
So the point is if we get this thing together would any of you guys be able or like to bring yer trucks, 'stangs, and any other item of curiosity or "bling bling" (shiny stuff, chrome, gold, rice burners , huge systems that make things go boom and rattle bolts loose...stuff like that)
ANYTHING is welcome as long as it's got an engine....Cars, trucks, sleds, harleys & custom bikes, heck even Mopeds!!! we don't care! u can even bring a riding lawnmower for all we care!!! (not that anyone except Adam Sandler would do that......
So if you'd like to come just post here and I'll get back when we have everything set. and if anyone can recommend a good venue for it in so. NH, were open to suggestions.
you can also visit the first robotics national website (ours is down....) if ya want some more info.http://www.usfirst.org/
Thanks guys,
Pat

I don't have the specifics yet but there's been talk about the end of October and if needed early november. We might know by wednesday next week. Not sure. I'm just trying to get a feel on people that might be interested. The 3 venues we have been talking about are my school's football field or the senior parking lot (yup...damn seniors get all the privs.. ..) or the local wal-mart. I've already got a friend in a WWII Ford jeep who'll come....so you should have plenty of time to drop that motor in before it happens. You guys will have some input as to when it's held. I'll keep you guys posted.
later,
Pat
