State Distances
For those of you who have finished competing at states. What were the distances they gave you? I'm curious to see if they tend to give higher or lower distances.

Can't say, but for future reference it's generally not good practice to post the same question in multiple topics.BobbyJoe wrote:For those of you who have finished competing at states. What were the distances they gave you? I'm curious to see if they tend to give higher or lower distances.

Re: State Distances
I believe it is completely random. Anywhere from 2-4 meters in 10cm intervals. I'd recommend making markings on your brakes for every 50 cm so you have a good idea of where to place the lock device.

Re: State Distances
I think Tennessee was 3.8 or 3.9. If I find where I made a note of it, I'll say for sure...BobbyJoe wrote:For those of you who have finished competing at states. What were the distances they gave you? I'm curious to see if they tend to give higher or lower distances.

Re: State Distances
iirc New York was 2.5 meters, but our supervisor makes it completely random, so there's no correlation for us lol

Re: State Distances
I think it was 2.6 meters actually, but it is completely randomized as you said. I think the only distances they wouldn't use would be 2, 3, or 4 meters exactly.Giantpants wrote:iirc New York was 2.5 meters, but our supervisor makes it completely random, so there's no correlation for us lol

Re: State Distances
PA they messed up. Actual track distance was 3.3m back, but they gave us a distance of 3.7m.
