Heavyweight Robot Fight? (220lbs)

Anyone want to go to Florida in April for a robot fight? I've managed to replace all the parts I broke at Battlebots by ebay alerts. I replaced everything and the spares at way under market prices. I want to rebuild the same bot in 4130 steel. After several slices and rebuilds, I got the chassis perfect. Now I just need to lighten the chassis with 4130 and add all the originally intended and already cut out armor plates. 4130 ~weighs the same as the mild steel in Version 1, but I can use less of it to achieve the same strengths.

Probly leave VA on a Thurs night and return after the fight Sat April 18th unless we vote to hit the beach, hunt fossils, etc. before returning to VA.
