Not exactly, because last years bot had the wheels in the center of the bot not on the corner, and the wheels were totally different, and we had alumnium "bumpers" on it.

It will not just be a ramming bot, but from the tests we did yesterday on our ramp (which we had to drag in from outside with 6 inches of snow on it) It should be an amazing powerhouse. We will be able to push bots, ram boxes, and pick up stacks, depending on the size of the stack we have protection so it is less likely to tip over. We also have a ramp-stayer-on-er device Oh and no matter what, we always have our wheels on the surface of field/ramp .... except for when we launch over the ramp

We never knew you could sheer keyways until yesterday

I can't wait for competition!!!!
