Teams, please be aware that any off season prototying of drive bases, while encouraged, cannot be used for your 2015 competition robot based on the manufacturing rules of 2014, assuming they are not being changed for 2015. You may design, CAD, prototype to your hearts content, but, the final design and manufacture of your competition robot must be within the build season commencing 3 Jan 2015. (Again, based on 2014 robot rules.)
