Ummm... maybe forks IN the bumper zone would be better, 1 foot off the ground sounds like it will be right around all of the crucial components on some 'bots. At least if it hits the bumpers the plywood would probably stop it if the fabric& noodles don't. I would say ~4 inches above the ground sounds better.
