Re: Teams going after the ramp?
Our approach and departure angle is enough to clear. We have 6 wheels so there is no center clearance problem. However, between the front and middle wheels, and between the middle and rear wheels, there is not enough clearance. We are probably about 1" too low. I think it will still make it up if it teeters properly but I'm not 100% sure. We might need to make a forceful run at it. If that doesn't work, we'll be able to get and stay on the diamondplate. If we roll back down. We'll make a brake. We might not get on the horizontal part, but we'll definitely get and stay on the diamondplate which is just as good for scoring points.
