Re: How many people like bumpers?
(Read with sarcasm)
Yes, of course we should have the freedom of choice. We should not have to have a bumpers. We should not have to be under 120 pounds. We should be able to put chainsaws on our bot.
(end of sarcasm)
Sorry, if that was in the least bit rude but from what I gather, people would rather have freedom then a challenge. The challenge is why I want to be an engineer. If I could go out and make anything I want with no specifications or restrictions then it just wouldn't be engineering. If you don't agree with me refer to the design process. One of these steps specifically states that we should identify the problem. This year the problem includes a bumper requirement. Plain and simple, design for that and it won't matter.
My only concession: It is mighty hard to find pool noodles in Indiana at this time of year.
