Ok only 1 day to go, we all ready for the event then or not? Hey we found the problem with the arena flipper - the dump burket was ALWAYS open. So exspect a big difference in the new Arena Flipper - hopfuly! Oh and John has some something to the arena hammer so it will do more than scratch this time.

john wbc wont be testing, its having some work done, and a mod to reduce the flip, static only if i bring it, but will be running the new heavy if thats ok... not the mule though dave
will the big cheese be there mr dmac?

non female team mates are pete and dan with feathers Bloody L and Elvis, and our new heavy... sorry craig, but if its any consolation im working on getting rach to get some of her mates along with a robot... not happening just yet though.

stu.... thats just sick man, sick sick sick... looking forward to it.

Well im just about ready, still wiring up because we had to rip it apart because its overweight but give it a lick of paint and itll be alright.

My tip would be dont forget your thermals as if I remember right the usual place the arena is set up, gets very cold so best bring jumpers and small/safe heaters if you can.

I may have to bring up the point that I want to fight other competitor robots not the arena its self...! :P

I dont think Im going to be able to make this one guys. Ive got so much on at the moment I dont think I can spare the time.

Hi James

I will bring Big Cheese if it arrives in time.

Dave

Great event, despite not having the robots wiring ready but next time.

I am also wondering (begging) for your help, as part of a graphics design project I am to start next week I needed to collect as many photos of the robots/arena/audience/graphics and other pictures as research. While my camera was working fine at the event when I got home, I have found out that now for no reason the memory card is blank!!!

Therefore, i am asking if you took any still pictures at the Magna event could you please provide me with a copy for my project. Either e-mail them to me (addy on profile), send them over MSN or i will even pay p&p on a burned disk full. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Twas a fun event. Tanto was robbed in the last fight, but Pussycat was obviously very popular with the kiddies.

Tanto did win the last fight (we all know that) - we lost a chain very early on in the fight, hence why she wasnt her normal crazy self. :sad:. First time ever to lose a chain in Pussycat (Would be the first and only time i get my hands on her controls in 5 months). Least it was in the final fight so she could play all day long! - Worcester onwards, look out, Pussycat & Mr Stu back in town.

Was very impressed with Tanto all weekend, specialy the fight when he pushed em all in the pit GO Craig, keep it up mate!!!

Shame not to meet you Frank but over 240 miles each way for me is a bit too far for a day trip :sad:
