Go to Post Overall, I thought FIRST did a great job with the rules this year - very simple and very clear for the most part. However, something is always going to fall through the cracks (and I don't mean that in a bad way - people need to know that it's practically impossible to do something perfectly). - Chris Hibner [more]

I hate to burst your bubble, but I think this is a decision that should have been made weeks ago.

However, I think lots of teams are using pneumatic tires, or having wheel spacing geometry that lets them float over it.
