I am having hard time understanding this part.


Rule B states gaps can not be wider than 8in but the gap that "OK"arrow shows on the top-rhs is 9in. Am I understanding wrong what it means by width?

Does this mean that teams can’t have through the bumpers pickup with this new change?

It would seem so. Do NOT quote me, i’m reading along as well.

The outside diameter of the game piece is 14 inches

If the gap is >= 8 inches AND it is less than 1/4" deep then it is ok.

otherwise if a gap in the frame perimeter must be <= 8 inches if it is deeper than 1/4"

This rule is in here to deal with fasteners, bearing flanges, etc.
