BS1 Sumobot?

Is it possible to construct sumobots that are somewhat competitive (can sense other robots and the line, and respond in certain ways) using a BS1? How many IR sensors could be used with the BS1? I'm looking to construct cheap sumobots using the BS1 project board, any input would be appreciated.

    Check out "Robot Sumo - The Official Guide"· by Pete Miles, pg. 286.· He describes a simple BS1 based robot that includes IR edge detection, and IR Object (opponent) detection.· I build one several years ago.· It was a great project-simple but very effective program, basic electronic components, servo motors, lots of hardware store parts.
