Bumper zone clarification
Hi,
One of our mentors is a little concerned as to the bumper zone. Do our bumpers have to start right at the 10" mark and extend to 15", or can they start at 11" and extend up to 16"?

Re: Bumper zone clarification
As long as the bumpers are entirely between 10" and 16", it doesn't matter.

Official: Post to Q&A-->GDC reviews-->Official answer posted on Q&A.

Which one takes longer for an official ruling? Therefore, which one makes more sense to use?

Re: Bumper zone clarification
The official answer (and the only one the inspectors will honor) is in the Q&A System.
