Re: Best Drivetrain

To add to what Rick said: There were possibly rumored cases of this happening in the 2004 season. Size constant, build now, we'll do the manipulator later.

The result: Instead of 36" x 30", you now have to fit in a 38" x 28" box. If you try that and say that on here, there is a risk that the GDC will decide to change the sizing on you.

The size has changed AT LEAST three times that I know of. Something small, 36" x 36", 36" x 30", and now 38" x 28".
