Re: Spy Box Human Player Driver

From T26-1, with emphasis on the portions applicable to the spy:

  • A. the OPERATOR CONSOLE,
  • B. non-powered signaling devices,
  • C. reasonable decorative items,
  • D. TEAM STANDARDS and devices, if needed, to assist placement in the Standard Holder,
  • E.special clothing and/or equipment required due to a disability
  • F. devices used solely for the purpose of planning or tracking strategy provided they meet all of the following conditions:
    • i. do not connect or attach to the OPERATOR CONSOLE
    • ii. do not connect or attach to the FIELD or ARENA
    • iii. do not connect or attach to another ALLIANCE member
    • iv. do not communicate with anything or anyone outside of the ARENA.
    • v. do not include any form of enabled wireless electronic communication (e.g. radios, walkie-talkies, cell phones, Bluetooth communications, Wi-Fi, etc.)
    • vi. do not in any way affect the outcome of a MATCH, other than by allowing PLAYERS to plan or track strategy for the purposes of communication of that strategy to other ALLIANCE members.
Items B, C, E and F also apply to the DRIVE TEAM Member in the SPY BOX.
Violation: MATCH will not start until situation remedied.
As I read it, you're pretty much limited to non-powered signaling devices (e.g. flags, signs, color cards) for this purpose.
