Bold statement...

Truck Town has made a bold statement with this machine.

I hope you have build it "Like a Rock" because I imaging the beatings Beatty took last year will look like child's play next to full force knocks you can expect if you trap 2 unfriendly robots on the wrong side of the field.

I have a question for the general audience here. Notice that the limbo blockers are in a sense designed not just to block limboing but also to prevent other robots from spinning the Truck Town robot.

Does this run up against the complex rule of what you can and cannot design your robot to react against? I confess I don't have my rules handy but I think there was some prohition against using the limbo bar in certain ways, the specifics of which I don't recall.

Comments?
