Re: Who is going over the bump? (A Pillar really)

Given all of the arguing we were doing, that's relatively few points of contention. Besides, even though I don't agree with your logic all of the way through, I agree that a team with resources (like yours) is perfectly correct and justified in designing to cross the bump.

Good luck in the FRC season, and may your robot always drive straight!
