Our team has almost finished constructing the bridge and its big.

While I do agree most of the team it would be faster to traverse the bump, it may not be always be faster, nor safer.

1. Why it might not be faster.
U have to slow down to cross said bump, if u full throttle the bump, u could flip or damage ur robot. Thus it may not be faster.

2. Robot safety.
Like I stated above, flipping or internal damge is not good.

3. Why bridge.
Practice is perfect. If u can traverse the bridge in qual games, u will get better at balancing because while the bridge is large it is still a challenge.

Personally I would rather traverse the bridge, unless u design the robot to absorb the shock that it will take hitting that bump.

While this is my own personally opinion, I warn caution to any team who tries to traverse the bump.
