This may blow out my email...and I apologize if it hurts the speed of the discussion database (Webmaster:If it does...remove it quick!)

I was wandering how many real teams are planning to participate? I have gotten about six on count just by emails.

I have one team...The Rust Renegades.

I thought I might apply my team this season but it looks like I will have to hold off to the next. My brothers and I (The N.E.W.F.S Newfoundland Engineers Who Fix Scrap, or The Fast Forwards, or The Newfie Bullets) live far apart so we have to wait untill we all get together again to do the audition video.

Well, The Desert Rats will be sending our application in tomorrow (waiting for the pictures to come back). I was thinking that they are going to receive a TON of applications but after reading some articles here (most notably from DP), the numbers quoted far exceeded my predictions (~1000). So...we'll wait and see what develops. Like everybody, we'd hug -n- kiss an opportunity to compete! Best of luck to ya all!
