I am wondering how this ramp design will change the value of wide vs. narrow chassis in alliance selections. Many teams chose wide chassis because it may aid in a) balancing 3 bots, and b) with size of ball intake. This design takes away the value of the wide bots for balancing. As a matter of fact , wide bots would have harder time aligning with and climbing your ramp.

Good luck. I hope the rules are interpreted in your favor .
The only thing whining in this match would be the team going against these guys! New thought: Can they cross over the barrier at all? It seems like they can't get to the other side like that!
