I can't tell exactly what's going on there, so you may want to recheck those ones

Other than that, that's one beast frame! I love the cheese-holing job! Is there a specific reason you kept the long and narrow orientation of the drive train?
We will have to double check the rules on bumpers....I guess we could redesign to make a point instead of the little square ends

we wanted the wheels further up to the front, but we need to turn them and that would interfere with our ball retrieving from the floor. So we moved them back so the wheel footprint is a square.
