The problem with this school of thought is that in practice it doesn't work. When you are running at the ramp at a great velocity, you will hit the steep ramp and essentially bounce back. If what you meant to say was that "If you are going fast enough when on the ramp" then that's funny (seriously).
[QUOTE = antthecyberguy]Our original thought was that of "the ramp is not worth it" but our robot design allows to go up it if necessary. We would hate to be the only one in the alliance that could not make it.[/quote]
I'm absolutely in agreement. You don't want to be the "downer" on your team that can't get up the ramp at the end, especially if your teammates are counting on you. Nicely said.
