Re: New Bumper Rule makes West Coast drive Illegal?

This year's rule: "nut and bolt fasteners are recommended" - Last year that was a MUST.

Additional fastener parts can be attached to the bumper itself this year - the rules specifically mention brackets.

There is in increase to 18 pounds for max bumper weight (was 15).

The pool noodles can be beveled at the ends of the bumper pieces to make a fit around the outside corners of the robot.
