Im curious, how to you guys plan to stop from being pushed back and forth (into the zones?). I know for a fact that our robot could push you guys, unless you have some type of triangular stabilizer on the back that I can't see from your picture. FYI, our drive train is tank treads running on two supershifters with two cims in each.

Either way, we will be detrimental to the opposing robot. If they are taking the time to push through us or drive around us, mission accomplished for us. 45 cycle time can turn into 50, which in these matches can be significant.

That bumper backing material does not appear to be the required 3/4 inch ply wood. It would be quite annoying to get to your first event and have to waste a good amount of time fixing this issue. I'd rather say that and be wrong than to silently wonder and let someone waste time at an event.

Looking good overall, I'm glad too see this design coming together. :D

All bumpers on this robot have proper bumper backing.
