Please, Please, Please, read the rules! This is a banned example from the rulebook. You are not allowed to do ANYTHING color wise to disrupt the sensing capabilities of any Robot on the field. Let the sensing robots sense and applaud them for the difficulty in getting a complex system off the ground within build time.

As for the cart- I strongly suggest a nonpowered cart pulled by people power. The pits are very tight and that can make a motorized cart hard to control. Plus, you are not allowed to have anything off tether in the pits, so you would have to have a driver anyway.
