Re: Are extensions with bumpers after the start of the game legal
To prevent your robot from turning I am going to suggest that you put a giant patch of roughtop on each of your flap-down-field-blockers. I would also make them deploy so when they are in the down position they actually lift the middle of the robot off the ground a tiny bit. This way no one will ever turn you. I would also add a full 15 lbs mini bot for the added weight (place it as low as possible.) This will give you even more weight.

If you do this I would not want to play against you. As you are now, however, we would want to play you every match because as a giant lever you'd be very easy to push past.

my 2 cents
