If it was up to me, and not limited to Budget, we would travel with a complete workshop.
But you have a point about the argon bottle. It could give us trouble at the ferry.
If somebody local could bring an argon bottle and regulator, then that part of the problem is solved.
Good Luck 2morrow chaps!
i got kids tickets for this event on sun but they cant make it, can i change them to adult or get a refund?
Yeah, it might be a bit late for some but good luck to everyone going :)
Daniel, i think you will have to phone up grant or james
not sure if they are camping tonight but if they are i would think they have already left
i think you will be able to change them to adults at the event though
on the look out for another reciver for a spectrum, really need it anyone?
thanks
Mario, prodigy evo has pulled out.
So has 360 now.
Had problems with one of the disc motors and i want to run it all or nothing. I think its burnt out due to dirt in the motor and i carnt get spairs as there not made anymore. Sorry James!
Good luck to the rest of the competitors.
,,The motors burning out has given me an excuse to upgrade for next time now i know the speed controllers and batterys are proven. :)
@ daniel, yes we can sort something out for you. just come along and we can exchange them.
Just finished loading the arena... too tired to do the event now lol. Havnt got anything ready for Venom so i hope it dosnt break argh! lol
Anyway good luck to everybody and look forward to an exciting and memorable weekend!
Good luck to all, wish was coming, been ages since i seen a spinner driven in anger. Got Uni Assessment tomorrow, and then a trip to Thorpe Park over the weekend. good luck again, cant wait for the videos.

back at home noe for a nice rest
the first day was good B.O.W and psycho fling havent gone through to the finals but psycho fling did get to the second round, and block of wood still works these spinners have done damage but nothing bad
some interesting other battles spinners chucking themselves out of the arena unlucky,
great demos from Zazor and Tiberius making light work of a microwave
looking forward to tomorrow should be great!!!!
Alex its Razer ;) not Zazor

JOhn
dizzy didnt go through it hit tiny toon and ripped its own batteries out again, not many spinners through cant remember who got through
Jonno, spinners all out except for Miss Psycho Tilly (i think) - shame. MMM through :angry:after stacking us against the wall!!!! Cant blame Trevor though, he is defending his title after all. The flippers are doing well, LF3, Wedgie & Explosion performing brilliantly.
and the mighty beauty 3 ?????? LOL
did u get my txts jonno
u would of been proud
my driving was spot on and won!
im trying to get my dad to go to battle bots now!
Good on it, what did your driving win? :proud:
the uk championship 2008 :P
Ah...whats the third day of the comp for then? :P
Well done anyway, not at all bad.
just for Johnno number 3 well knocked out against LH2 the new buffer still got swarf in it as it was untested it had 1 flip and the burket stopped open with swarf :sad: in every fight untill LH2 made a hole in the burket (never had that befor) but well done to all and Robot Challenge for putting it on.
1st Beauty 2
2nd Alpha
3rd LH2
4th wedgy
Beauty3 top 8 ish
was only a 2 day event in the end joey
was advertised on here along time ago - maybe near a year ago so plans wernt official then
Well done to Beauty (anyone else getting annoyed with it winning everything? :) ). Suprised how far Alpha got, most of it down to the luck of the draw, a few modifications on the way to take advantage of the extra weight available, maybe a weapon :lame: .
We had a Flipper, pusher and an axe it the top 3, just shows the variety still out there. Thanks to the Robochallenge for making everyone feel welcome.
Alan
LJ you know it woulda been different if id even put 360 in the arena to drive around first round u jammy git lol wish id of known i woulda just come n pushed u about abit lol
Well done anyhow :)
Great event really enjoyed it, block of wood is still running no-one sems to be able to kill it :)
amazing time reallly liked the arena c ant wait for the next robochallenge event
thanks everyone
Great event Robochallenge, I enjoyed it, even though most of day 2 was spent repairing Satanix after getting the snot beaten out of it by Little Hitter (47 hits in total, at least 15 of those to the underside!).
Cant wait for the next one
Few things I may suggest though boys: The music is very quiet during fights, cant be heard very well; The arena lighting: too dark in there, and your audio system: Feedback anyone ? :P
Stilla great event
Just back after a rather long drive up the west coast. Sorry we had to leave without saying good bye to everyone.
Awesome event. Really enjoyed myself. Just gotta work on staying in the arena and not killing myself before the end of the battle!
If anyone has any videos of hornet 2 in battle could you give me a shout as I would like to pass them onto my sponsors.
ye was a great event
they cant have music 2 loud as james and ian are both talking through the fight - i think they do anyway? was abit dark compared to normal - did see the normal bright light in the arena just dont think it was on but was very viewable - audio was hearable if your infront of the speakers as thats where your meant to hear it best, was a few loud noises from standing infront of the speakers? but you get that everywhere so dont think any of these were a problem.
and ye dave - if you got into the arena in fight one you and surprise would have for sure knocked me into the losers fight but i would have won that :P
my dads already trying to rob my wages so he can give some to my sister to spend on £4 a go rides at some boring festival we have in lichfield
Thanks for a great event.
Aftershock worked well but knocked itself out against Beauty 3 it unplugged its own battery.
Whirlpool still just about works after the damage in the losers melee but will now probably be retired as the chassis needs to be rebuilt.
Also if anyone has the video of the first round losers melee (where whirlpool got smashed) and Dizzy Tilly v Tiny Toon can you email me.
Thanks again for a great event and well done to Beauty 2- can anyone beat you??
Will
