Re: 2010 Featherweight UK Championships - 3 Days September
Who/what is weed?
Not too bad a draw for boner, few minor upgrades to the machine but essentially it will be the same as it was when it was fighting last year. Jamie we could always see if there's time for a grudge match at some point or just have it out in the car park old skool style! :)
Re: 2010 Featherweight UK Championships - 3 Days September
Works for me :)
Weed is a pneumatic flipper, a scaled-down version of Kronic. I used to know where some pics of it were but it's been a while and I forget now :lame:

Looks like Tron and Seraph aren't expected to do well!! lets hope they can keep going For those 3 fights, I still want a fight Tron v LS4 :mrgreen:
Re: 2010 Featherweight UK Championships - 3 Days September
Don't worry Craig, my predictions could be well off, and in most instances I've gone for who I consider to be capable of having the most impact. However history will show that this is often not the case and regularly the unexpected/lower-powered robot wins.
In other cases, I was maybe being a little biased towards my robot/robots I've previously competed with :uhoh: :)
But although I've put myself as winning my first battle, I honestly don't know how to tackle Seraph - pinning it down is going to be tricky and any front-on assault will just result in me driving right under you! :lol:

Alan - I am just waiting to hear back from the campsite - It looks like they are trying to keep the whole campsite clear for us. As soon as I have heard back I will let you all know. :D
