Re: <R38> and adhesive backed tape in 2008

I agree that this is a great modification to the old rule. Last year we ran into an issue with metal contacting carpet on our lifting mechanism, it was not legal to cover it with tape, but it was legal to cover it with the KOP Microchip stickers; That's a bit absurd if you ask me.

This rule should allow teams to use any adhesive backed material to change surfaces instead of just finding those that aren't labeled "tape"
