So even if the front of the robot is defined as the narrow side, the rules don't seem to make you put that front facing away from the trailer.

I'm inclined to start leaning your way Alan. Mind you the ONLY info I have right now is from the 2008 Q&A, but last year's manual had the same sizing chart and the wide body orientation was allowed in the Q&A in 2008. Should prob still be asked this year, but carry on with the wide design ideas....
