Yes, but this year if you're 1/4" over you only need to take 1/4" off of a corner (actually only .707*1/4"), not an entire side of a robot. It's much easier to run up to the limit.
(As long as you can make the 1" bumper support at each end somehow - still haven't figured out how that works for sides that are <8", a chamfered corner, for example)
