Re: Steel Frame

Jim,
We have used steel in the past. One of the drawbacks was the ability to rework in the pits. It's tough to drill speed holes in the steel frame to loose weight and drilling takes more time when you need to mount something. If you have the weight, which this year's game seems to allow, then you should have a workable frame.
