I agree with you about parts that were built before kickoff. I think that anything built before Kickoff should not be allowed, including anything from previous years. I think teams should be allowed to design and prototype, but any actual fabrication for final systems should be done in the six weeks only. It's unreasonable to completely disallow any work on next year's robot ahead of time, but in my mind, if it was built before kickoff, it doesn't belong on the 'bot.
