US bots (vs. UK bots)

Something I noticed today (for those who think all US bots are spinners.)

In 220s, the top 3 robots of all time are all lifters - not spinners - and theres only 2 spinners in the to 10. This pretty much holds class be class. So for those concerned about fighting US bots, historical calculations show that lifters beat spinners:

Summary of top 10:

Sewer Snake (lifter)
BioHazard (lifter)
SJ (lifter)
Megabyte (full body spinner)
Shrederator (full body spinner)
Vlad the Impaler (lifter)
Original Sin (brick/wedge)
Hexadecimator (flipper)
OverKill (hammer)
Evelyn a modified Dawg (brick/wedge)

Just FYI...

wish i could go over to the states and fight the spinners lol - more fun then fighting a lifter

would be good to have a world champs but would cost too much for us to go over unless we found a kind sponsor to pay for us all but i cant see that happening lol unless theres major tv involved or bill gates wants to put an event on but u no all that

storms going over and i think that they will do very good over there could maybe even win the event

ill have one last beg with my dad in the morning :P

wud cost us 600ish each in just flights :sad: n with 6 of us as my mom would want to come would cost a bomb

Dont say the word bomb in the same sentance as flight!! :)

Dont say the word bomb in the same sentence as flight, especially if youre in an airport at the time! :)

haha didnt notice that 1

Neither seem that great

storm looks abit slow but thats prob because there fighting on a steel floor

the arena looks nice

storm looked to be a little uncontrolable but like LJ said it might be because of the steel floor. wish i took envy now :)

Lots of new bits on storm this is always a bit tricky, I wish the team well:).

Looks like Storm lost one of their right-hand chains

Its the front most chain on the right side i think, the same one they dropped at the space centre a few weeks ago.

Frustratingly it was the the rear chain on the right side, so a different one - brand new chain that ripped itself apart.

Drive issues after testing were interference related, change of transmitter/receiver solved that one very nicely - till we chucked the drive gear!
