Ah yeah, it should be a pretty safe bet that there's a concrete floor. Although, I guess it does depend. A buddy of mine used to live in one of those inner-city houses, I don't know how old it was but it was at least 80 years old, and it only had a wooden floor in the basement. Planks over dirt ... they weren't even nailed into anything, they were just pieced together and laid down. (Whee!)

I'd seriously question the integrity of the rest of your present home if 1200lbs cracked the concrete floor. I've had 155s and such on the second floor with no ill effects (not that I noticed). Congrats, on the engagement.
