Due to popular demand we have added a Saturday night show for this event and swapped the two Sunday shows for one at 1pm!!
As discussed at Newport with the roboteers, this new format will be tested, the arena will be open for " play time " on Sunday morning and you will all get home at a reasonable time on Sunday night.

just wandering how many fw fights are on each day
oh also would the arrival time be the usual or would it be a bit later
I hope to go to this one, have rooms been booked yet? I would like to book the same place as everyone else.
I will be there with Gravity 5.3D . Still disappointed from the EK and the problem with the cylinder, so aiming to win all the fights @ maidstone ;). And i am hoping Jeroen and TAN will join me.
be great to see you again Jeroen !
Should be a great event.
Just got conformation that Jeroen and TAN will join me. So two Jeroen's will be there defending the honer oh The Netherlands :p

A few quick questions, will there be any feather fights on the Sunday morning??? and what time roughly do we need to turn up on the Saturday???
ohhh, also is any one bringing an Ant arena???
Cheers in advance :)
I'm bringing an ant arena :)
Great, Ill bring Mini E :D
anyone know how early we can turn up on Sunday for play time lol
I tried signing up my featherweight but I'm not sure if I was too late to use the sign up form.
If I was too late, John can you please put me on the list? I can only make the Saturday though :(
No worries that's fine.
People should have had the email this morning.
Both shows have sold out, with over 24 hours to go.
Facebook page hit over 3000 likes yesterday.
We are putting Robot Wars back on the map !!

`Hi just want to say a big thanks to John and all at Robot Wars Crew for such a fun weekend at Maidstone.
Both Saint and Cherub had moments of shock and awe! for me the best was Cherub getting back out of the pit! it also did some type of back flip too I don't know how! Oh it didn't win a fight but I just love it's crazy antics anyway.:mrgreen:
Saint tried out the new sword, it seemed to work well I think we will keep it, even if it is a bit long.:uhoh:
Congrats to John for winning the weekend trophy, well deserved.
Titan deserves a mention as it is becoming a very capable and dangerous robot, and Well driven too.
Also Kapow had a very impressive first fight too, were looking forward to that being another "launcher of Team Saints robots" OOTA
It's good to see so many of our friends there, looking forward to the next one.
Craig
Team Saint:)
Just got home (at a sensible hour for a change), just wanted to say that's probably my best heavy event this year (even though I wasn't driving one); ha great fun with the feathers (loved Trojan's LCD panel on the back :) ) despite burning out a motor, and we had a whole army of antweights which the audience were loving, and some great fights throughout the shows :).
Well done to Jonno for winning, hard luck to Jarvis, John and Titan, you did well considering you couldn't steer half the time!
See you at the next one :)
Thanks once again to Jonno and the crew for another excelent weekend,two sold out shows with action packed battles.
Congratulations to Jonno on the win,and to John Bell/Jarvis and Craig/Zak joining Alex in qualifying for the Winter Tour Finals in Gloucester.This was without a doubt the best showing so far for TR2,it looks ever more promising for next year. Toon Raider lasted the whole 3 minutes in the comp fight with me driving,so things are looking up on that front as well.
See you in Doncaster
Another fantastic chapter in the 2013 Robot Wars Tour !
Thank you all for coming, roboteers and audience it was a fantastic event !!
Congratulations to Ripper who won the overall event, started the run to defend the title, can I make it 3 times champion?
Plus another well done to TR2, Saint, and Titan who have also qualified for the finals in Gloucester !
See you all in Doncaster for your second chance to Qualify!
John - Robot Wars
I agree with Dave, one of the best, if not the best event I've been to!
Thrilled with qualifying for the finals, and a good fight with TR2 in the semis as well. Well done to Saint for qualifying, and for beating Micheal!! I know you and Will had a tough weekend, but Doncaster awaits you!
Also well done to Jonno for the win, 10 points to Gryffindor! :lol:
