Re: Are extensions with bumpers after the start of the game legal
I just want to clear up something so this doesn't grow out of hand. The Wildstang 2003 robot although designed with a wedge (legal in that year) was not designed (and never used) to flip our opponents. It was merely a strategy to allow us to protect the ice and to allow alliance partners to drive up on us for protection if needed. Any robot that flipped over trying to go around our strategy did so under their own driving. Our drivers were practiced to stop driving (or back up) if a team was aggressive so we would have no part in their flip. The wings were articulated and were raised during much of the match.
