Re: Bumpers here to stay?

What ever happened to building a robot that can withstand a beating?
Our team didn't use them this year and we got beat up so bad, only one think happened to our drive train and that was a screw came loose.
I think that if you need bumpers to save your robot, you need to go back and re-engineer your 'bot to be able to withstand the illegal ramming that went on all year this year.
