[ady]

will be good to see scorpian lem running, only saw it at an event once earlier in the year,(cant remember where) when it send smouldering batteries flying around the arena.

That was at FW UK champs in Leicester. Good fun that event

I am gonna be up all night trying to get Satanix running, so, to Graeme, You may wanna arrange a back-up partner

[ady]

can little hitter get under 10.4kg lol? i can be a back up partner.

jonno i hope you were joking when u said u were taking rip for abit of fun! this is a serious competition :-)

is it john on sarahs account? do u mean by how many walls beauty can hit - is how many robots we can flip out and hit the walls? because I cant wait to see this more then you

jonno beaware cus ur going out in final

and adrian what i meant was that a robot what can do serious damage cant not go in full on because its going to cause damage imo and with 1 hit with most spinners not the robot is going to be dead - well i no beauty will be thats im gonna either hide behind rip or your going out straight away - havent decided yet

i look forward to the spinner vs spinner fights - there always fun especially with the spinners you lot are building - its going to be one expensive weekend

[sarah]

young mister lear. you completely misunderstood. we meant how many pieces of beuty can hit the walls at the same time.
that was dad but this is me :-)

all i can say is it will be an interesting competition, their are some great looking machines coming along. Thats ok John i have to decide if i come up against you whether to run on 12 or 24v. :wink: decisions, decisions lol

i say go on 12v cus when i flip u out i dont want it to be spinning to fast because you might go flying - well ur going flying but we want to take care of the poor lights which r going to be above the robots lol

[john]

beauty does good at robochallenge events

we came 2nd last dec and we won euro champs and were going to win this

we came 2nd as my dad messed up and we had a leak and we won euro champs because hanibilto? wasnt running and im going to win this 1 because jonno is just a quality driver and will be defending me all the time

:-) just a few records for you all

i hope rip is nearly ready and tested jonno!
