Re: Spike relay question
Kevin,
I believe we are in agreement. R36 and the COTS definition is contradictory. I believe the intent of the definition is to level the playing field and allow only COTS parts that are available to all teams. I believe the intent of R36 is to allow teams that have mechanicsms from previous years to use them without the added cost of finding new parts each year. (See also the rule on using previous years small CIM motors.)
