That is a very nice board. We were thinking of doing something like that this year, but were short on time. The guys who built ours decided that style was better than practicality, so they built it our of 80/20 and covered that with diamond plate. Although this year it should be slightly lighter because we have eliminated two joysticks and replaced them with the box, but our drivers hate carrying it.
