oooh how do i decide...higher or lower than Q's, or A-dim x B-dim x C-dim x DomingoMfactor, or roll the dice, or....

After a complicated guessing process the answer is 7.07

Good luck Porkchop..hope you have a great Mfactor...we will need all three dimensions after you weigh it

Q, you have been pretty much awol since your carrot. To catch up: This thread is for a 4.59 Porkchop guess, a smaller one. Too late. The 5.95 Konieczny, the bigger one, hasn't had a guess thread yet but anytime.

I have already pulled out my abacus....daughter thought that was a toddler bead toy. The question is..what is the right Domingo Mfactor....00043 gives an estimate of 4.61, .000062 gives an estimate of 6.65. I am surprised by your 17.5 measurement. I am thinking that measuring at the lowest cross measurement might give an inaccurate number. From you pictures..it should be alot bigger than the estimates. Are you sure you measured correctly?

9/24/2017 6:48:45 PM

i just figured it out..these are the dimensions of your smaller one..mFactoor of .00053...waiting for the dimensions of the bigger one. That one is going to be really heavy.

There are several hypothetical ways this thing can go. Either way contact your NE GPC rep asap and let him know what you have. You would rather be prepared and have it go under rather than not prepared and it goes over. Contact Dan MacCoy since has properly gone through this. You do t want controversy with this.

I ran the numbers..I think you should be thinking come on 8.62. From my calculations you will need a multiplier factor of .00049 to take the World Record. Last weekend your other Domingo ended up with a multiplier factor of .00053. It is very possible the WR is going to NY.
