Good to hear you're coming Pete. Are we able to trouble you for the use of your arena again ?

I made a start on the raceway circuit today, pictured with Bulletproof for comparison. The track is 6" all the way around so robots WILL clash at some point on the way around.



It made a lot of dust, and I took precautions:

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! *jumps into large hole*

I've signed up, confirmed I can definitely get there now. Just need to make sure Jigsaw has a working flipper mechanism, and get hold of some teal tape for the team colours

Andre and I (Team Speed) will be there. Do we need to register somewhere?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! *jumps into large hole*

How about just jumping on to some mattresses instead?

@ Jamie: LOL

Tania: there is a link in the thread to sign up, if ADMIN can out it on page one that would be handy, thank you.

[Simon Windisch]

OK, all the details I could muster are on the first post.

I've thought of a team name now, the tiny reds team colour is red if you haven't guessed yet

I'm in need of more robots for this event, if you wish to come or plan to come, PLEASE sign up on the sheet on page one.

Hi there my son is 9 and obsessed with robot wars ,he is autistic.he wants to compete with his ant weights but we need the rules and at present he only has 3 ant weights......could he come and watch if not enough robots to compete?it would be him and me or dad.he would like to get involved but doesn't know how!thanks.

welcome to the forums
the main rules are the 150g weight limit and the 4" cube rule as long as your robots comply to all these and have sharp edge protection (eg a scalpal blade axe) you will be fine, what kind of robots do you have? maybes post pcitrues and details in the "new robots thread"
3 ants is enough (you are only alowed 3 wheeled robots and 1 walker for competitions anyway)
getting involved is easy, you just sign up to one of the events, and turn up on the day ready for battle
this comp is different to others as it has a seies of challanges and games (racing, football) as apose to just combat, whitch i think is full combat (spinners)
