Information about this Website

This website first came online in March 2002.

I apologise for the fact that some pages may take longer than normal to load. This may be because of lots of people on the internet at the same time as you are or that there are quite a few images on that page. Thank you for your patience.

I hope you do enjoy this site as a lot of hard work and patience went into building this site.

I made this site because I am interested in robots, especially the sport of robotic combat and the TV series: Robot Wars! I want to share my knowledge and interest with other fans, roboteers and enthusiasts!
