Question about bumbers and stuff about our chassis

[falconmaster]

Since everyone has determined that we are illegal we are changing our bumpers. Just kidding, we like the critques. It helps us develop our design. We now feel that we will loose that battle so we are changing.

I will agree with you Vikesrock, I'm just curious as to why they seemingly avoid stating that each side of a corner must have 6" bumpers ATTACHED to it at all costs.

Heh, sorry to keep dragging you guys into all these bumper thread, but your posted chassis design is a great example that the GDC has ruled on directly.

2. As indicated in Rule <R08-I>, all exterior corners of the BUMPER PERIMETER must be protected by BUMPERS. Both "sides" of the corner must be protected
.....

I agree that it should be in a Team Update to spread maximum awareness, but they have definitely said it.

That's exactly what I'm talking about, protected by and having physical bumpers attached mean 2 different things to me.
