How many beetles currently exist?

Hi all,

Who currently has a beetle which is running?

My reason for asking is that the arena I am making for the AWS in March is looking to be big enough for Beetleweights too. If I can source the extra bit of polycarb to fiinish the roof (the rest of the arena will be enclosed in 8mm polycarb which I already have) then the arena will be fully up to spec and good to go. Total size of the arena will be just under 2m square

If we can get a couple of beetles along for couple of fights that would be great. If we have enough interest there could be room for a beetle event during the summer.

I'm currently rebuilding Spinza since I wasn't happy with it.

Unsure when I'll have it running by but shouldn't be much longer.

I have the parts for a beetle, just need to get round to building it, and lightening the disk

Count me in if during/after the summer, I'll have finished uni by then so ought to finally have some more time to play with at last

There was a surge in beetles about 8/9 months ago...

Some pretty lethal ones to. I reckon you could run an event now if you tried.

I also have plans for a beetle Conker but it wont happen any times soon.

I have a beetle in the works.

I have a beetle weight but has no amour so I wouldn't want to put it up against spinners
But wouldn't mind facing it against everything else
