Re: Bumper "Side" Clarification

Ok so on our chassis we have our frame and then the wheels go out an extra 1-1/2"-2" past the frame does that mean those tires have to be inside the bumper too. Or can we build a mounts at 9" high and go above the tires and around the chassis .

You need the sides of the chassis to be longer, or have a support outside the wheel. Either way the effect is the same; you can't just make your bumper odd-shaped to avoid your wheels.

Crap I was hoping that wouldn't happen time to design bumper mounts

You could do that as long as they are retractable and stay within 15" of the frame perimeter. They would have to start the match inside the bumpers though. The question is should you do that.
