Re: What is your frame weigh?

We haven't got any actual metal yet, but our calculated weight is around 15 pounds if we don't go with any weight reduction. I'll probably cheesehole a few pieces that I feel don't need to be that strong. Our complete drivetrain should be around 50 with motors, wheels, electronics, bolts, etc. Maybe less.

We're concentrating more on having a "heavy" chassis this year. Last year we took too much material out and it wound up bending in a few spots, could of been avoided if we had bumpers though.
