Actually, we don't need to use these ramps/bumpers for hanging. In this picture, the robot is more or less in its "debug" mode where be can run the wheel motors without driving around.
Although, it DOES give us a capability to reach an extra 8 inches or so. Perhaps it will allow us to reach the bar from different parts of the field? Who's to say... ;-)

Those are the sprockets behind the wheels.

As to 2 robots, I have said elsewhere that FIRST has forced teams that want to be competitive during autonomy to build two. This is why I think autonomy is a bad idea, but FIRST has its reasons.
