It was enough to qualify almost everyone. (Blueshift and Hydra did not quite get enough rolls in the Spring, and were granted an exemption.) Sunday featured many sprinkles, and the teams did not get all the way through the order before the rain really started and rolls ended. A few incidents to report:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Saturday road dampness meant some teams had issues passing drops, including SigNu&#8217;s Jaeger.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Spirit had another spin with Inviscid on Saturday, and did not get to complete a roll on Sunday. They started two buggies up the hill and then were stopped by Sweeps because of rain picking up. One of the Hill 1 pushers didn&#8217;t react for some seconds, leading to an almost collision at the top of Hill 1.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Teams were still sharing slots but only to help finish qualification. Later on Saturday, Kingpin made contact with the outside bales, so close that a crash was called out on the radio net and stop flags we thrown for SigEp behind them, leading to Barracuda spinning.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Several other teams also had some shaky lines. The lack of Spring rolls this year is showing. <br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:20%\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-small-font-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cmubuggy.smugmug.com\/2024-2025\/Spring-Rolls-Mar-29\/i-GndmSgC\/A\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/2024-2025\/Spring-Rolls-Mar-29\/i-GndmSgC\/0\/Kf2cvGR9jNnJs4pz5PK9LdJrqHdw8dnPVgDqBm3rh\/Th\/PXL_20250329_105117068.MP-Th.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/a><br>Robobuggy Heat!<br><br><a href=\"https:\/\/cmubuggy.smugmug.com\/2024-2025\/Spring-Rolls-Mar-30\/i-DWHSnff\/A\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/2024-2025\/Spring-Rolls-Mar-30\/i-DWHSnff\/0\/MWNz6MRKRnGVqPNw5nKbC528bZ899sHNf6KtpTbBN\/Th\/PXL_20250330_112828159.MP-Th.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/a><br>CIA&#8217;s Starling with very fancy tape<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:80%\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>We saw one new buggy with a new paint job- Apex is locking in a sun theme with Helios.
