Re: legality of bolt and screw heads breaking plane of chassis meeting bumpers

The sad thing is as I look through the pictures posted of team's robots, I would be willing to bet that >75% are illegal due to this stupid ruling.

IMHO, the GDC made a hasty ruling, and instead of eating crow and retracting or changing it like they have in the past when such a thing happened (like the "no band saws in the pits" ruling), and correct it to the obvious and rational ruling, they are sticking with it and it's going to really cause a ton of problems at the early regionals.

All for nothing.
