Thanks to everyone for a really fun and relaxed day! There were loads of good fights and it was great to have a proper catch up and chat with everyone.

It was nice to see some new teams and have a chat with them hopefully we now have a few more hooked ;)

Well done to all the winners and I am looking forward to the next one! Great job guys!

Thanks to Vicky and everyone for a great event. Nice to get to chat to people rather than frantically trying to fit all the fights in!
Lovely to see some new faces and some old faces in addition to the regulars.

This was possibly my best event ever since James has allowed me to drive my own robots, getting through to the play-offs was a major achievement :)

Red Snapper is surely the best Pants-kit robot ever, great work Luke and Charlie! 8)

I would also like to say what a great and enjoyable event it was.
Even with a turnout of almost 40 robots it was that bit more relaxed than a full AWS so as others have said more time to socialise.
Thanks to Vicki Dan and family for organising it and congratulations to all the winners.
The funny thing was that I had been talking to Dan Townends dad earlier and he said Dan was worried he had fogotten how to drive.
I wish I could forget how to drive like that.

Thanks for a great event even if I arrived too late for the main tournaments (Thanks car :P )

I hadn't competed in a while and it was a nice and relaxed way to get back into it.

Thanks for putting the event on Vicki, Dan and Co, good fun and a bit more laid back than the usual AWS; good to see raceway again :)

Well done to all the winners, especially the slightly jammy Dan and EPQ (goes away for ages, wins 2 competitions on his return!).

I look forward to the next Antweight Open :).

SLIGHTLY JAMMY!!! HOW DARE YOU! LOL, I got very jammy yesterday, with the draw in general and the fact that i managed to switch stewie off in the tag team, maybe I should eat more jam...
