All steel for us. We had a welded steel frame this year and it worked very well for us. It weighted a ton, and probably limited our design, but it was strong, cheap, and easy to work with. We have used aluminum channel and tubing before (2001 and our off-season OCCRA competition), but we like steel better, and we can get it fast and cheap locally.
