Hi all, can I just say a huge thankyou to all the teams who took part this weekend, both at the Suffolk Show during the week and at XFM Ipswich over the weekend. Emails have been flooding in from the audience this morning wanting to know when the next show will be and weve also had loads of interest from people wanting to have a go at building !

Also, huge congratulations go to Team Tilly and their robot Dizzy Tilly for winning the XFM competition and taking away the prize money. When we announced it Shane fell to his knees crying and Ive never heard an audience share someones enjoyment for the sport anywhere before. Yet again we ended up selling out shows and had to get more seats brought in by the venue to accomodate the extra tickets that were sold. The XFM model seems to be working very well, with the £5 ticket price resulting in a great value show which people can afford to bring their friends and family along to.

XFMs taking a break over summer from the full-on events, but well be back in September in Norwich for which signups are already open along with a few changes here and there.

From myself, Rick and Bob a huge thank-you goes out to all the teams that took part and please visit http://www.extremefightingmachines.com/applications.htmlhttp://www.extremefightingmachines.c...lications.html to sign up to our upcoming events.
