So we have a leftover 350 that we thought we would prototype. Speed and power are not the problem, however weight seems to be the issue. Any suggestions?

I think our kit is missing that engine.... wait were we allowed to use engines? Checking flowchart.... nope, uh oh somebody needs to do a little redesigning. I hope you haven't already made your second practice bot.

In the immortal words of Myth Buster Jamie, "Well there's your problem right there!"
Rule <E885> clearly states that an exhaust pipe longer than two inches is not required. But for safety reasons, I would suggest using ear protection.

Naw, that's definately the 2x4 pitcher from SRL... I'd love to see that thing in action, live someday.

Drill some holes in the frame and you might be close.

Weight Issues? It appears that tetanus is the true problem that there is with that machine.

This looks like the perfect application of magnetic monopoles. Being that they are rare finds you better get the team out searching right away. Also you can put the monopoles up on E-bay after the comp. That should fund the team for a couple years.
