Personally, I don't think that'd be worth it, as you're not only attempting to prevent them from completing laps, but sacrificing your lap points and preventing your partners from completing laps. Additionally, I'd like to see how well your bot can maintain it's position when it's clipped at high speeds by a 148 or 1519. I'd think that they'd be fully capable of nudging past you on the inside of the track. You'd slow them down some, but I highly doubt you'd stop them.
