I guess the thing to do is ask the head ref at our next regional whether they will be calling minibot races based on the rules, or something else.
Okay, let's just bash at the base of the towers until it triggers. No need to actually race up the pole. So long as we're hitting the pole with our minibot, the minibot is pushing on the tower, which causes the tower to trigger, so it should count.

Fine with me.

I'm also eagerly awaiting a Q&A response....
I can guarantee you from watching the Bayou webcast, it is not working 100%. Not even close.
