Our sponsor who is world (And technically out of this world) class. I dont think the welder knew the kind of loads we abuse our machine with and thought it would look nicer (that part is true). We sent them some pictures after we had a good laugh about it, and we'll be collectively sure to make sure to be extra concerned with exposed frame.

The kids managed to drive an entire match without noticing, and we're pretty sure 16 hit us on our exposed face with those huge claw things they had at the time. A full speed collision with something like that would probably cause a lot of frames some grief.
