I love the one where you go right over the ball like it isn't even there.

My sister's husband told me when I was just a wee one, "momentum will take you where traction will not."

Re: FRC488 Driving Over the Bump

Will going over a ball like that be a penalty? That will be extremely annoying, since they are pretty much impossible to see.

Good question, and with proper deference to the Q&A as the appropriate forum to get a "real" answer, my guess would be "no" as the ball has not entered 3" into the robot. There have been some Q&A answers regarding using ramps on the top of the robot to direct the ball... which is allowed, as long as the ball doesn't penetrate 3" into the robot, so presumably the underneath of the robot would be the same.
