I think we are at about 62 pounds with motors, sprockets, and chains, but without electronics and game mechanisms.

We are using the same kind of wheels as 492 this year -- we're hoping some of that Titan magic will rub off on us...
hehe Rick, we have everything but our hopper and the front loader, that includes battery and everything else. But we are always "close" to being overweight. If we are not we add more weight at the base.

And Rick, check your PMs!
