that's what I've heard a lot of good teams recommend for WCD, and this is a similar aplication.
I'd be a little scared of the 1/16th wall tube for your drive base. We used 1/8th last year, and we had a strong one piece bumper protecting it, and we managed to bend our front a little bit. I would imagine that the damage would have been a lot worse if we had thinner wall thickness.

That said, I doubt next year's game will involve so much ramming, so you might be able to get away with it.
