Go to Post My calculations indicate that the game will involve pouring large areas of concrete and waiting for it to dry. Field reset should be interesting. - DampRobot [more]

While we didn't use exact weights, we drove a 4 CIM AM Shifter in Low Gear (with a long drive base) at about 30 pounds and about 180 pounds (yes, I know this is 30 pounds more than an actual robot!). While noticeable, the difference in turning ability was nothing to write home about.
