Re: pic: Legal Bumper Configuration?
This isn't legal, part I of rule <R08> requires that "BUMPERS must protect all exterior corners of the BUMPER PERIMETER." and refers to a drawing that has bumpers on both sides of a corner with the padding extending all the way out (I'm sure this explanation is slightly confusing, I suggest you look at the diagram in the rules to see what I am referring to). It wouldn't take too much to make this legal, you'd just have to sacrifice a bit of your collection area on the front to make room for the 6" of bumper on each corner. And remember to leave 7" out of the back for the trailer hitch.
EDIT: I didn't notice that the bumpers extend past the corners. I think this is a question for the Q&A, as the rules are vague about whether protecting a corner requires bumper on both sides (as the diagram suggests), or just a bumper on the corner.
