But, that won't work either, because it clearly states that the trailer can only make contact with the bumpers, and if it made contact with the inside "bumpers", then that would technically be making contact with the robot. Even though it'd be a soft part of the robot.

So, i am concluding that it is illegal, and very risky to do it since we might have to change it later.
Do the rules say the trailer contact part in rules that mention the trailer?
