Quentinfool is an unknown quantity at this point
It was clear in the rules that you can throw boxes HOWEVER you can only use the 5ft long latex tubing included in the kit to launch any boxes. (using elastic potential energy)

NO PNEUMATICS

and 2nd, the boxes arn't going to break from throwing them. I'm gonna say 1 or 2 of lids may come off but they ccould add extra rivets to the boxes at nationals.

i dont know how much energy you can get from that tubing but I dont see boxes flying too far.
