Special thanks this week to Anthony Pacella, Tom Wood, And Lou Conley \u00a0for notes, video\u00a0and pictures from rolls with more to come as we continue to untie the knots.<\/p>\n<p>This was the first weekend where teams got to experience the new roads and as expected, reports are very positive. PiKA and SigNu have yet to cape their buggies so they were not out this weekend and are hoped to return next weekend.\u00a0After talking with Sweepstakes it seemed that rolls went off without a hitch logistics-wise. There are always little\u00a0things that happen like not all of the police barricaders\u00a0showing up, a truck making its way onto the course, ect, you know the usual excitement that every sweepstakes chair dreads. All buggies were\u00a0bagged the entire day to help the drivers get acclimated or re-acclimated to the course and the speeds. With beautiful weather and freshly paved backhills, we are dreaming for\u00a0every weekend to be like\u00a0this.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In Attendance<\/strong><\/p>\n<table class=\"data\" border=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Org<\/span><\/th>\n<th><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Sunday<\/span><\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">AEPi<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kamikaze<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Apex<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Phoenix<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">CIA<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Equinox, Icarus,\u00a0Orca,\u00a0Ascension<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Fringe<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">X1, Beacon, Bissa<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">PhiDelt<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Perun<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">SAE<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Lucy<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">SDC<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Havoc (?), Avarice,\u00a0Malice<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">SigEp<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kraken,\u00a0Pandora<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Spirit<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Inviscid, Kingpin, Mapambazuko, Seraph<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Robo<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Transistor<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>Observations<\/strong>\u00a0(<a href=\"https:\/\/cmubuggy.smugmug.com\/2015-2016\/Fall-Rolls-Sept-20\">Sunday<\/a>)<!--more--><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/2015-2016\/Fall-Rolls-Sept-20\/i-4P34vDM\/0\/a0f66d72\/Th\/DSCN0060.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><strong><strong>AEPi &#8211;\u00a0<\/strong><\/strong>They were not in their usual spot when I arrived at the top of the hill on Sunday so, they must have\u00a0found a spot elsewhere during rolls.

The team still has a great demeanor at\u00a0rolls with huge smiles because they have the most fun.

From the video, kingpin was moving slowly enough to not cause damage and she hit the very first inside bale, just barely missing the curb. The buggy behind her, Mapambazuko, and the follow car both ignored the stop flag and\u00a0drove past Kingpin in the chute. Sweepstakes plans on having some penalty for that. Inviscid got in 4\u00a0rolls and Seraph and Mapambazuko each got in 3 rolls in despite the crash. <del>Inviscid<\/del> Seraph\u00a0also took some liberty with her lines early on in the morning (video below).<\/li>\n<li><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/2015-2016\/Fall-Rolls-Sept-20\/i-NgTQzS8\/0\/83b0586b\/Th\/DSCN0067.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><strong>Robo &#8211;<\/strong>\u00a0Transistor, Robobuggy&#8217;s newest build, was out this weekend continuing their work from last year still working toward a fully autonomas driver.
