This was an awesome bot. But is it always legal? In 2008 there was no height limit and only a 80" diameter upright cylinder length/width limit. The bumper zone was also only defined in Playing Configuration. This year the bumper zone is "<R29> Bumpers must be located entirely within the Bumper Zone when the Robot is standing normally on a flat floor", though "normally" could take the "perpendicular" or "standard" definition.
