I went for design 3, I always liked the idea of interchangeable weapons on a training bot such as this, and the chassis it self is a standard sort of shape which would be good for general driving practice.

As you all know, I have 2 current ants, Void and Zenith. I also have Synergy reserved, was going to be a pneumatic flipper, now it's going to be something a bit special ;) I'd also like to reserve Ramification and Ultimatum for future use.

P.S. How many of the RRC7 vids did you send? I recieved 2, just wanted to make sure you hadn't sent any that havn't got to me for some reason.

1. Rules limit metal armour to being 1mm or less thick, unless it is part of a weapon (this includes it being a part of a scoop/flipper, etc). Any other materials can be as thick as you like. 2. Depends what grade the ali is, and what thicknesses you get it in, so I can't really help on that one. 3....

Void is 151g, and I think you can go up to 152 legally in the rules, to allow for scales and stuff. We're all relaxed anyway, aslong as it's not grossly overwiehgt I don't see there being any complaints :)

See you all soon :D!

Great stuff :D I swear I'm too obsessed, I watch the videos back like 20 times, work out what I did well, what I did wrong, how to beat certain opponents etc :P Wether it works or not is a different matter though... As for your spinner, it can't do much worse than the first version of Zenith, which ...

Also, if anyone wants to shoot a video and sell it, then that's fine with me. I'm just going to do the photos this time. Has anyone got a cam they can bring along to record the fights? I'm willing to operate it, do the editing, etc, I just don't have a cam of my own :P. Always like having a video o...

Yay, Speedway! My Dads bringing me this time, not my Mum, but I'm sure he'll be willing to help :) Almost got Void finished, he's a bit of a fatty (167g :o) but the wheels are very heavy so I'm sure I can lose the weight. Heres praying for a competition where he dosn't break! :P Look forward to seei...

No speedway this time? :( That was always one of my favourite events.

I'll be sending my entry in over the next few days, just need to get transport arranged.
