The 469 auto

So it looks like team 33 is going to be at the next two compitions with 469

I was just wondering if something like this was aloud for the starting position.


---------------------------------------------
[R B B ]
| B B |
| BR B |
| B B |
| TT RTT |
| B B |
| R B B |
| B B R|
[ B B ]
----------------------------------------------

TT = tower/tunnel
B = Bump
[ = goal
R = robot

The robot in question would have their right front wheel touching the bump and they would not not start across the line. Then when auto starts they would drive straight into the tunnel at an angle wedgeing their front right side under so they could not be pushed out.

R TR T
R T R T
R T R T
R T R T
-------------------- T----- R--------------------T------
S T R T
S S T R T
S S T R T
S T T
S RTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

- = middle line
R = robot's position after auto
T = tower/tunnel
S = robot's starting position before auto


Would this be a solution to 469?
Your thoughts?
