As others have said, there is no actual mechanism for opening the sallyport or drawbridge. I avoided saying class A defenses because we have been practicing defeating the sallyport and drawbridge by going through backwards, quickly releasing contact of the defense, and then driving back through. It was more thoroughly discussed in a Q&A a while back. We only plan to do this in a pinch, however.

So what I should have said was "Class A defenses, and maybe Class C if the referees are feeling generous and our drivers get enough practice"
