kodster and macduff the second.....

with a wedge setup depending on the angle of the wedge envy can reverse off with the rear being about 3 or 4 inch off the ground. tho macduff will have to get a good line for the pit. i will ofcourse bear this in mind and let kody bring the fight to envy. i believe i am a better driver than kody and monouvering into a position to oota shouldnt be too much of a problem. still as always wont get complacent and think its an easy one for envy although it looks like it is. envys wedge is zero mm as is macduff2nd so it might be 50 50 head to head. still has to line me up to the pit tho and will be watching carefully and making his life to do it difficult. 1 oppertunity for envy will be all it will need

Much appreciated

Fight is being written as we...type? (cant really say as we speak...)

i believe i am a better driver than kody

Well considering the only robots Ive REALLY driven before are R/C cars and Lego robots...

That may change soon with my new featherweight.

I see a problem with your plan Shane.

with a wedge setup depending on the angle of the wedge envy can reverse off with the rear being about 3 or 4 inch off the ground

Too bad that once I wedge you, youll be stuck on the skirt once your wheel goes over the top of it.

Then I can turn around all I wish (though not recklessly) and pit you, as your wheel will still be caught over the skirt.

The skirt is bolted at the top corners, just so you know, so it wont come off easily.

I however am just looking for a good fight.

i cant see how envys wheels will be entirely off the floor. this means that if what you say is right then the entire body of envy will have to be off the floor. i cant get in my head how you can steer without envy sliding off either way. its a difficult manover to make with a robot on envys wedge. i will see what you mean with a pic tho. still kodster envy will reign supreme cos i will simply out drive you
