It's funny this keeps coming up.  Was there a pipe racer that ran in competition
that didn't have a battery box attached?

no.

I didn't have it attached when I was testing it, and you guys said I couldn't do
that.  So, I didn't hesitate to mount it on the robot.

I'm sorry you guys didn't like my robot, but can't you at least complain about
something I actually entered into competition?

But what about the people who have never attended rtl dinners?  People who read
the rules page, and have built a robot based on that?  If they don't know the
rules changed, they could be in trouble.
