yeah im curious too

well you should ALWAYS test on the floor of the event before you go. I ALWAYS do that b/c it makes a huge difference

How are you able to test on the surface? I have never been able to do that since I don't know what the surface will be, and I can't test the day of.

I always do.

I got away with it at MI states last year too; go for it.

Well where was it last year? This year it is in the IM West Sports Arena if that helps you know what the surface is like. So it is on a gym floor.

ya if you just go there before impound (or if not impound before you go) and bring tape/measuring tape and set up a track on the same surface. test so you know. thats what i always do, and ive never had a problem

I might be able to do that. But as you can see by my sig, I have a lot of impounds, and a Wind Power test nice and early in the morning. I'm not sure how much time I'll have, but i'll try for it. Thanks.

Well, there is no impound for mousetrap vehicle, so you can test/practice until its your time to actually run it for points.

Are you sure about that? I'll have to ask coach if there is a change about the impound, like there was at regionals. Btw, cool sig ophiophagus.
