It should be noted were higher-speed tests, with a heavy 6 year old dummy.

Ohhh OK so maybe the 6 yr old dummy had something to do with it. I feel better just knowing that fact. Thanks!!!

:yeahthat: The dummy was not only over the weight limit, but was also too tall for the seat.

How can you tell how much it weighed? I'm not questioning you, I just don't know where it says how much they weigh. As far as too tall, yeah, it did look like it was but I couldn't see the shoulders well enough to tell.

It's listed in the description on another page. Judi's right it was around 51 pounds. The Canadian Marathons are rated at 48lbs.

As for height, the dummy's head was above the shell, and the harness slots were below the shoulders.

Please post the link to the tc video for the marathon
