No bumps != no flips. I've seen lots of flipped robots in my time, even on flat fields. The one year I didn't see one was 2009--and it's a bit harder to flip with one of those trailers and low traction as factors.

If I was to change one rule, I'd go with changing the suspension points up a bit to encourage more suspensions. 2337 was one of only 2 robots to ever be the base of one in competition, and very few were even capable of being a suspension base; more were capable of suspending, but didn't have a base.
