I'd still like to see some kind of limitation. Whether that's Justin's idea of cutting down the dimensions or the weight limit, or the idea of removing something usually crucial to the robot (like, maybe, wheels), or, using one of my friend's ideas, and totally limiting vision of the drive crew by having them watch the whole match from a monitor that is showing the view from a camera on the robot. (I really like that last idea, because it would add this awesome aspect of knowing the best place to put the camera as well as focus on driving ability...though the "outside contact" rule would have to be seriously enforced)

I think the reason why I'd like to see limitation so much is because, well, I havent known of any limitations getting smaller throughthe years, and we havent done something to drasically change a lot of these robots.

Plus, wouldnt a smaller kit of parts cut down on costs anyway?
