You cannot cross the finish line and reach back over the finish line to get the TRACKBALL.

The only feasible way to get the ball down would be to trow a TRACKBALL at one still on the OVERPASS.

The game animation shows a RED ALLIANCE ROBOT extending higher than 6 feet in the BLUE HOME STRETCH.

Please reply with concrete evidence or a reply from FIRST. We do not need to extend this thread with comments founded on speculation.

This is not speculation: Just wait for update 1.
