ha!

We were planning to put red and blue electrical tape "bumpers" depending on our alliance color and have our numbrs in same contrasting color that our host bot has on it.

weight nazi's say no way! If it doesn't make it go up the pole faster, it is not on the minibot.

we'd have a hard time getting 1 one four inch number on our minibot, even if you cut it up into little pieces and spread it all around the motor casings and battery pack.

Will probably engrave it into the aluminum because that doesn't add weight!
