Re: Fasteners extending outside the FRAME PERIMETER

The very, very bad thing is that if fasteners stick out both inside and outside the bumper zone you were legal before Team Update 6 and now you're not. Making such a ruling at the end of week 3 is frankly unacceptable.
I guess I didn't fully understand the issue. So, to make this theoretical 12x12 team described above compliant, they would need to make their upper level say, 13x13?
