(BTW, I am a CAD guy too)
I never said the rhinos were going to make bumper making easier either. There was a cad competition a few weeks ago on here and I decided to try out the rhino tracks. Spent an hour trying to get legal corner bumpers on there.

I think you better off doing something simpler like a wedge on the front (check Andymarks new video). Switching to pneumatic wheels/bigger wheels or putting some type of puller mechanism on the front.

Although this definitely is a cool challenge. I just don't always like cool challenges during the challenge of build season.
