Overall I think we are at about 75, without electronics or shooter.. I think we will manage though.
Our drivetrain with wheels, frame, and gearboxes, and maybe with electronics mounted on a temporary 1/2" piece of plywood the whole width and length of the bot and battery weighed in at 48 lbs.

Our upper frame part so far has only brought that number up 20 lbs. We are around 70 now, but that will fluctuate a lot from now until the end of the week.

We are doing good, but the upper part is far from complete. It'll happen though.
