Go to Post At GLR our team only had to deal with a bunch on kids seeing snow for the first time. With all the ensuing snow fights and vainly trying to run up the giant snowy hill behind the arena. - Kevin Sevcik [more]

stevethetinker is an unknown quantity at this point
rack size

I have been reading docs, drawings, and posts, and nowhere can I find clearly stated how far the spider feet protrude from the face of the goal rack. It's gotta be on one of those drawings but they're beyond me.

The goal rack is 8 feet from face to face. How far out do the goal feet protrude from the rack face?

Re: rack size

Yes, the rack is eight feet base to base. Which makes it 48 inches to the center.

The spider leg is 58 inches from the outside end to the mounting hole (60 in. total). The radius from the center of the center disk to the mounting holes is 10 inches.

58 + 10 - 48 = 20

The spider leg protrudes from the face of the rack 20 inches.
