(not including bumpers and batteries) then a lighter robot say 115lbs could pick up more then the heavier robot? or does the maximum volume deminsions not include the weight of your payload. I am asking this becase of the recent ruling about the net bieng used to hold the orbit balls.
Other than the fabrication timeframes, the GDC doesn't normally write unenforceable rules. This one would be difficult at best to enforce, if not outright impossible.

That and the game pieces aren't robot parts.
