We can't download the PDF for the rules and stuff (restricted access rights on the computer), but how long is the trailor hitch tongue?

If you care to work it out, our robot's backside (mounting end) is 37" long....

It's not the back end of the robot I don't know, it's the short side of a right triangle. And the real length of the long side. The best that I could come up with is that if the bumpers are right against the hitch, you get a maximum swing of 120*, which probably isn't enough for most robots. (60* each side from straight out.)
