Ditto. It's a quote of the exact flowchart FIRST has in their manual, lol. Generally speaking, the offseason events I've attended have been so low-key that I doubt anyone would have cared if a new material (or even illegal motors) were used. Since we don't have the sensor connections for the towers, the 'race' for the minibot is somewhat moot.

Personally, if your students will learn iterative design by building a new minibot and the rules of the offseason remove the 'race' from the minibot, I say go for it. Yet that's just my opinion; you should ask the offseason event coordinator if you go to an offseason competition tbh.
