Re: Are You EPICALLY overweight?

If you're really desperate for big weight savings start looking at places that you doubled up motors. I know last year we weighed in a 120.1 - 120.0 all season and if worse came to worse we could've always pulled the extra CIM out of our drive.

And if you're really desperate, start trimming those bolts! I know on our 'bot we could lose a half pound easy if we cut the excess threads off of every bolt.
