Re: is 18 gage steel, used as a bracket on the chassis counted as an outward protrusi

R2 is what you have to comply with. As long as a small bracket & bolt did not exceed 1/4", I would consider it a minor protrusion. At some length a bracket would cease to be minor. Inside the bumper zone it could be considered part of the frame perimeter. Legal if the rule frame perimeter rules are met. Outside the bumper zone it would have to be a minor protrusion. Q&A generally punts these kinds of questions so ultimately it will be up to your robot inspector.
