Awwww come on Geoff, Ive got at least 200 tonnes of animal waste in a big heap in the yard and quite liked Karolines idea ;)
Gravity and Hades have got some mayor problems with both rams , but will be solved for King´s Lynn . CU all saturday!
That will be nice. My son is so looking forward to seeing Gravity in the flesh for the first time.
Be warned though.....hes never forgiven Gravity and WJ especially for Dantomkias loss in RW7 :)
Somewhat of a desprate plea from Team Scorpion...
Can anyone help us out with the loan of a 9.6v TX ni-cad pack for the Kings Lynn event (Futaba/High-Tec type) Our one and only pack had just died and we have no time to pick up a replacement before the weekend.
Many thanks.
Geoff & John.
Sorted Geoff.
Mr Stu
Geoff, If you need one we always carry a spare anyway.
Thanks guys, much appreciated!
And im sure anyone will lend their Battery pack out from their TX for you anyway Geoff, (Long as there not in the same fight LOL!)
Mr Stu
Not anyone Stu! You should have heard Jenny when I tried to borrow the one from Pillow Torque!..My ears are still ringing!! :sad:
I Think we are sorted with one now, so see ya all tomorrow!
Wont bring mine then if Big Nippers has Ti coating around it for you to use then.
Mr Stu
If anyone is interested, tonight at the stadium in Kings Lynn there is Banger racing and a firework display. Saw posters for it yesterday all around Peterborough.
Also to Ian (lambsy), followed a NWL (New Wave Logistics) truck with a dust drawing on the back, that looked like an evilsheep!! You useing them to transport Ewe2 and Cutlet around now? LOL
another good event. Alpha and G3 both got to final (stupid sheep!). Merlin had few probs but all should be sorted for Doncaster. Well done to Kronic for winning. Got Merlins new ram, that should be in for Doncaster as well. Report will be up sometime this week.
Cheers to everyone for a great weekend. Kiara and I enjoyed ourselves greatly.
Dantomkia was a sack of sh1t as normal but the RoboteQ proved up to the task of the job of handling the Power Drive motors.
Just got to iron out the many problems before Doncaster.
Mike.
This was a great event, I still need to improve my driving but thats a work in progress.
Nice to see some people made the effort to dress up for the event. Every one was great as usual.
Nice to see Chompolt getting a bite on thier opponant, and winning the battle. the battle between Gravity, Hades and Thz was great.
Just time to practice my driving before Doncaster, so see you all there.
Jenny
Thanx for another great event guys !
I just got home 4 hours ago, and been @ work for 2 hours now :)
scrapping that piece of crap Gravity 4.5, gonna put in a normal ram (=huge) more bottles and make it work this time...
Ill try to get the footage of the terrorhurtz-hades-gravity fight online as soon as possible.
Morning everyone.
What a fantastic event. Were so pleased to have won, as you probably heard from mine and my Dads shouts! :) Its the first event weve ever won.
Really looking forward to the final at Doncaster. Even gonna give Kronic a nice shiny paint job for the event.
Thanks again to everyone for such a great weekend.
Dave
Well done Dave! I have some great video of Kronic throwing EWE2 about. Ill email you later.
Thats one each for Out Of The Arena then!!! Roll on Doncaster:)
Ian
Kronic in action is now uploaded onto my website.
There are also some pictures of some very strange people you may recognise!!!!!!

Very entertaning event yet again (not just the robots :)) and at long last our loosing streak has ended. Well done to Kronic and Cutlet for winning and see you at Doncaster.
Come on Stu, put the results up so we know whos in the final.
WJ, the camera man needs sacking and should have moved so you could see the THz OOTA better :)
Mark, I think so too, cause now it looks like the oota was a twin effort, so were not sure who put him out :)
Excellent event, the fancy dress prize for most scary person goes to the Riff Raff on my profile! (Sorry Mike but I had to share lol)I shall never be able to look at you again without shivering and it wont be with anticipation ROFL! By the way, Simon says next time have a shave ;)
Thanks Jenny, for cheering me on, it was fun, which worries me I enjoyed making holes once Id got the hang of it. After the pep talks from the menfolk and the debate with Simon I promise to chomp more, was nice to win a fight though, now if Stu had explained things to me at Newport... lol!
Congrats to Kronic & Cutlet, looking forward to seeing you all at Doncaster, weve changed hotels and were in the Innkeepers Lodge as well now, will there be an end of tour knees up? If so please dont let Mike dress up again lol!
Debs
WJ just a cheeky thought, but if youre scrapping Gravity 4.5 can I have the piece of panel I put a hole in? :)
PS we have that fight on video as well, will try and tidy it up and put it up for peeps to see, weve got several good movie clips from the whole winter tour. Not brilliant quality, but theyre watchable. Si cut to Mario as he was jumping up and down when he flipped Thz out of the arena :)Its his arm in the shot filming most of the time lol
Mark we have most of your victory fight on video as well! Pics will be posted very soon on Chompies site.
Debs
ehm, that wasnt Mario.
mario never went to Kings Lynn, it was Marco, the builder of Hades !
and Debs, the bottom of g4.5 was entirely welded on, not really a panel. Just chomp through a simple piece of 1mm stainless, same effect...
Great Event Guys, very well done!
Nice to see 2 different teams winning, and big well done to Kronic.
Mark - i got back home at a late 1am and then went to bed, then up at 7am for school, now this is the first time ive got on the computer. Ill stop a typing and get a posting of the results.
The table etc has all been done, as i did it during the 3 hour treck home in the truck (with the right fuel in it i might add). So all the points etc are sorted, we know whos in, but you will have to wait for an update email to come out for the final details about whats happening about Doncaster Final.
Mr Stu
ehm, that wasnt Mario. Mario never went to Kings Lynn, it was Marco, the builder of Hades!
Ooops sorry, Im blonde! Apologies to Marco! Ill pay attention next time, at least I was only 1 letter out though better than calling him something totally different :) ::chuckles and hopes Mike reads that to Kiara::
gr8 event, doesnt look like we will be needing Jonno any more :)
thats fine..... i was very happy where i was :)
especially, between the hours of midnight and 3am :) :)
Ive just been out and got two minature football nets (about 1 mtre wide) and a couple of mini footballs. Does any one fancy sorting some teams out and having a featherweight football match at Doncaster if Jonno and the schedule allow? I think it could be a great bit of extra entertainment. We could even modify our bots a lttle so that they could control the ball a bit better.
Ian
Sounds fun.
At the moment, it dont look like theres room in the Schedule, maybe during the breaks or soemthing? Were finding it hard to fit in heavy weight white board fights in the middle of the competitions as it is.
Mr Stu
Yep, well have some of that!!
I think Im also on fairly safe ground to say that Jen and Pillow Torque will be up for it too!!
Stu, FIND room!! :wink: (please!)
:proud: Will Try, will move it around etc, it will need quite a few rounds will mix the fights around on the spread sheet and see what happens.
Mr Stu
The only way it will fit is if, we take out a fight and replace it with football.
its the peoples choice :)

It´s just name .... Had a lot of fun and maybe some luck . I was very nervous in the fight against THZ , but Hades proved to withstand the hits . Maybe I will go to the final , thanx for a great weekend !
and what a good fight it turned out to be.
Mike.
