: Woodie, Dean & the gang at FIRST have really given us enough rope to hang ourselves this year.

: They've allowed us to be taller at the start, yet have given us a great advantage if we can get short.

: Very devious.

Yea, also enough volume the frame itself is pretty weighty, if you use all of it and make it strong enough to withstand the beating around the bar. This year I think is more of an engineering task than last year, and this year the trade offs are much more balanced. We didn't even bother to weigh ours last year until a week before shipment, and it was 10 lbs. under.
