Please don't take this the wrong way but I think you may have missed the point of my post. Yes, we all know what the rules were last year but we were at first concerned with the wording of some of the rules as discussed in this thread regarding what was and wasn't legal to use based on when you purchased it. My point in the post was simply to remind teams that the rules are always subject to change from year to year and that whether it is a fancy new COTS gearbox or a sheet of carbon fiber think carefully before you spend a bunch of funds that you may not be able to recover if the rules change and that item is no longer legal.
