Re: Springs?? (10 lbs. at 22 ft/s)

If you're imparting 100-200 joules into the ball, be sure that the centerline extends back inside the wheelbase, or do the math carefully so your bot doesn't do a back flip.

If I were an inspector, I would also try to be sure that nobody's head is likely to be launched instead of the ball.
