This point is very important and different from any other year! It is not enough that your robot fit into the sizing box--it also must ONLY contact the bumper zone when pushed against ANY of the sizing box sides! A safely small footprint around the perimeter is still illegal if some bolthead protudes beyond this perimeter (even if still well within the max 28 by 38 dimensions).
