Re: 2012 Team Update 4

This update is actually pretty important. The blue box at the end has really clarified the "stick something out the bottom of your robot to help balancing" as being perfectly legal. The Q&A responses this week made it look like it would be illegal.

Now, if you are on the bridge and you stick something down to the carpet it can be argued via the blue box clarification that your bumpers are perfectly legal as measured from the bridge that you are sitting on. Big clarification.
