Robowars Sydney 2013

[RogueTwoRobots]

Our friends down under in Sydney are trying to organise a big event this summer (or their winter, I think?). Normally their FW events take place in a backyard location but one of the guys (Angus) is trying to put on a public event with sportsman class FWs in an attempt to get more people interested and involved over there.

They're not blessed with the luxury of three EOs putting on regular events, and the portable FW arena lives up in Queensland, so in order to help fund the transport of the arena and other apsects of the event, they need help and are running a Pozible campaign (Aussie version of Kickstarter).

They're halfway through the window to pledge and halfway towards their funding goal (a large percentage of which has been pledged by the Botbitz guys) but they could do with some support to keep the momentum going. If anyone here can offer a hand in the form of a pledge, I'm sure they'd greatly appreciate it. After the FW champs we've just had the privilege of having, let's help them towards achieving a similar kick-ass event

Apart from the fact it's a bit of a thread bump, this seems the best place for it.

The above mentioned event is not far away and saw this posted on the RoboWars forum from Steve (Botbitz guy), just had to share it. Such an awesome looking machine! Kinda like an old-fashioned RW machine, but with all the modern technology and build techniques
