Weight of Trailers

I think the trailers are around 40 pounds or so plus the weight of the balls.

Retired Starman (or anyone else who had built their trailers exactly to FIRST's specs),

Can you please measure the weight of the trailer without and with balls loaded on scales accurate to the .1 lbs?

The mass of the trailer is REALLY going to make a difference in driving this year.

We should be done with our trailer tonight or tomorrow according to all the FIRST specs. I will post the weight as soon as possible.
