Looks good.
A few small questions:
1. by kickup wheel, do you mean a bridge tipper? or something else?
2. you say the turret uses a GT sensor yet I see a multiturn pot on the turret gearbox... redundant sensors?
3. Have there been any issues with the mount location of the Main Breaker? it looks like it could be in danger of getting hit by a stray ball (which could in theory shut down the bot).
Otherwise, I like the design. I look forward to seeing it at BMR.

The gear tooth sensor is on a sprocket attached to the wheel shaft of the shooter. It has nothing to do with turreting, just with knowing shooter RPM.

Looks good. Bumper numbering not compliant though. Maybe even skimpy corners for the bumpers too. I'm suffering from bumper-brain overload this year. Just finished ours before midnight last night in a marathon session to adapt to some perimeter changes. whish-oooooo
