speaking of the weight box right now it has a rubber mat on the bottom was wondering if any of you had the bedliner stuff for 1:1 trucks it could use a coat would be better than the rubber

If the sled is already 30-35# you won't need much more weight, maybe 10-15#. Barbell weights or steel bars would work.

I also have an Eliminator sled (12# empty) and 300+# of lead weight if you want to get serious with the pulling.

Last weekend I was in PA for an R/C pulling comp and have been competing in pulls for 20 years, so if you need a hook up let me know.

So what do you think about the sled pictured above do you think it looks like the real thing?Its about 3 feet 6 inches long and 12 and a half wide all chain driven with a slipper how does it compare size wise to your eleminator witch by the way is a nice sled.
