Aww, I really wish I could come, but it's a 5 hour journey from here in little 'ole Walsall

Sounds like an arena with no drop offs will favour spinners

If I was there I'd attack the house bot

nah the big one is only for the non-spinners

Team Terror · Post by **Team Terror** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 9:08 pm

My mistake

I hope you all have a great time anyway, make sure to kick some serious bot

Oh, and is the footage going to be on youtube?

Thanks to all of the Team Orr crew for organising a great day - especially appreciated after we missed the AWS.

Congratualtions to all the winners - there were plenty of them with all the events and the other awards. I was pleased to win "Best Engineered" for the new RONNY, and perhaps unsurprisingly Ouchie won "Best Looking Robot". James got "Most Damaged" for Antlifter, so we all came home with a certificate!

The obstacle course proved interesting as always - congratulations to the drivers who put in truly fast times.

The 3-a-side football (with obstacles!) was hard work for me trying to drive one of Pete's robots, but good fun nonetheless.

Thanks again to Team Orr, looking forward to next year (and the bacon sarnies!

)
