Any news on todays Heats?

Update ......Beast thru ......Ka-pow! out.

Yep, a few hits from Scorpion and we were out :sad: Not sure what happened, everything just died. I took it back to the pits, powered it up and everything was fine (except for the big holes through our steel armour and a gas bottle with a chunk out of it that was pretty unbelievable considering the disk had to go through 3mm steel first!).

But all is well as EWE2 went on to win its next friendly fight.

But watch out for Scorpions disc .. it packs a bit of a punch!!

Shame Ka-pow! is out, had a nice chat with John, and marvelled at your arcane pneumatics Woody.. it was pretty evenly matched against Beast.
Carrot was useless, duff battery, and my foolishly forgetting to wind in the reg meant our first fight with Alien destructor II was more of a tickle match.. sorted out the battery and reg, but didnt get to stay in the arena long enough with behemoth to play (very good driving chaps).
At home now drinking tea and remembering why I started playing with featherweights (no back ache, scarred hands, torn trousers etc...)

Behemoth beat Swarm, then? Or is it some kind of double elimination system?

Swarm failed to run,the floor was a bit too undulating and Gary couldnt get drive so Behemoth was awarded the win. Gary spent the day trying to adjust bits, but really needed a workshop with a dril press and all those tools you dont get in a field..(trying to drill titanium with a cordless hand drill is a problem) he struggled on bravely but in the end had to admit it wasnt going to be a runner.
