Team's would not be pinning T3 is they ram them on the limbo rails. Pinning is defined as blocking all movement of another bot. If a team pin's their legs to the pole it's not illegal because T3 can still drive their motors or retract the legs. I expect the legs to break at some point with field damage as a result.

I think 68 may have been a little hasty with their mechansim, they have very little clearence when both passing over and locking down their legs from their mechanism to the lexan.

When in semi-perfect position, those arms look like they are less than 4" from the sidewall's top. if they get too far to a side their legs will be useless.
