| Parents and mentors are expected to help transport the students to the events. The only acceptable route for a student to arrive or depart a competition is via a vehicle that has been arranged by the team or in a vehicle driven by the parent of the student in question.

| A volunteer is always needed to help transport the trailer to and from the competition. The trailer has an empty weight of 2,150 lbs. and a GVR of 7,000 lbs. When driven to outreach events and not fully loaded, the trailer can often be towed by an SUV. However, when fully loaded for competition events a pick-up truck is almost always needed to safely move the trailer. | A volunteer is always needed to help transport the trailer to and from the competition.
