Also, if memory serves me, 2168's robot is under 4' tall in the starting config so assuming their stinger is 12" or less, they are still within the 60" height parameter.

To clarify the discussion: After our first successful triple balance in QF 1-2, one of the referees called our total height with the stinger down into question and had the lead inspector measure us between QFs and SFs. It turns out we were beyond the 60" height restriction. Something we never thought to check and the inspector overlooked during a re-inspection, after the addition of our stinger during the practice day on Thursday. Hence you will notice during our second Triple Balance in SF 1-1 we balanced from our offensive zone side of the field. Fortunately for us it was just a simple adjustment to strategy and our whole alliance adjusted perfectly ... a great testament to all the teams and their drivers on the #1 seed alliance ... you guys are stars
