Do you have a picture of this 7lb aluminum frame?
2009 robot, 6.9 lbs.

2010 robot, 7.2 lbs.

2010 preseason prototype, 7.0 lbs.

Weights are from memory, but I'm sure they're accurate within .5 if I go back and Check the CAD. Weights not including bellypan, which varied from 1.5-2.5 lbs each year iirc.

I didn't point out the weight difference to be harsh or brag, but to get people thinking. We don't do anything new or innovative with our frames (still ripping off Glenn Thoroughmen's fantastic designs) and we've never failed one.
