The current manual takes precedence. The inspection sheet is last year's. 120 lbs. max without bumpers or battery, no more than 5' tall, and a footprint of no more than 28"*38".

Wink Re: is there a weight class in this years game

The answer to your quesiton is "YES", 28x38x60 and 120lbs, but, unlike last year there is only one class!

The inspection checklist is currently last years list. I imagine that the list will be updated before this years competition begins.
