Brilliant intake!

It's hard to tell for sure, but it looks like your bumpers would be illegal. Are the parts of the frame next to the intake at least 8 inches long?

That intake is sick

Your intake design is by far my favorite robot design feature that I've seen this season. The angled front is brilliant.
Well done!
