Would love to drive 360 ye - but as you say can't see dave letting me ha.
Would love to drive Thz, big nipper, storm2 , razer, typhoon, saint - these are some of the robots I reckon will need the most skill to drive - all there drivers have mastered them to.
i was about to say that, him or perhaps dan townend?Quote:

im learning as well, never gonna be as good as the other guys but im getting there :wink: Harry and Ben are gaining confidence as well....now just need to turn up with a decent robot...
but i recon the ones to watch are Jamie (drumroll) and Will (team shock) both doing well in the featherweights (and in will's case, heavyweights!)
i have to disagree with you about george francis jack he did a runner from Razer lol
wouldnt anyone :wink:Quote:

Gary certainly impressed me at Technogames and the Typhoon spinners must have been trickier than most to drive. I don't know about some of the robots listed by John as needing a lot of skill. anything with 4WD seems to be easier if there's enough power to 'skid' effectively. Terrorhurtz always seems very precisely driven and Jonno is extremely good- lots of practice! Andy's son is really good with Kan Opener too. Back in the day George and Kim were probably the best, Andy Marchant was very good too, as was Mr Adams with the 'Thing' series. Narrow 2WD robots tend to be the trickiest to keep on line, so driving something like that well is fairly impressive.
Currently the best drivers around have got to be Ian Thomas and his partner from the tag team champs last year.If those 2 guys can get 2 rambots to the semi finals against all of those so called top class spinners and flippers they must be pretty special in my eyes. :D :D
This topic could be: What do you think of this person's driving?
I'll start off: What do you think of my driving? (I have driven Mini Mighty Mouse, 4 4 Toon, Tilly Evo, SMIDSY, operated Scorpion's axe, one of Dave Weston's ants, and LR Evo.
Hey, this is a no brainer question. I am the best driver!!!! lol.
would definatly say the hardest type of robot to drive are 2 wheel drive with the wheels at the front
when your used to 2 wheel drive with the wheels at the back or in the middle it just handles completly different
