Re: Car Nack Predicts 2011-3

Considering that a great deal of 2007's top-row placement designs simply do not work in 2011, I'll have to agree with this one. The bumper perimeter precludes any sort of open front, single-joint design that worked so well in 2007. Thus, teams wishing to get to the top will have to add a layer of complexity (compound lift system or 2-joint arm).

I think that in every single Einstein match there will be 3 Ubertubes on the top row of one or both alliances.
