I leave to the reader the task of finding the definition of COTS in the manual; suffice to say that AndyMark products fit that description.
I have read the entire rules section (including robot, field, and game sections) of the Bible over 3 times. I am VERY familiar with it. That is part of a team captain's job. but I was not sure about the legality of these SPECIFIC parts. I had heard rumors (from other 1699 teammates that are constantly on Chief Delphi) that many two-speed trannies were illegal in '08, including some AM shifters. I have now done the research and found out that this information was ill-contrived. Thank you for your help
