well rip evo will only be doing non spinner white boards if there are any. Or can we play in between shows.? Im bringing it for a test as its going to singapore a few weeks later so dont want to scratch it with those round things. :-)

James/Grant - Missed a call on my mobile today and when I put the number into Google it came up as the Priory Castor number so Im guessing it was one of you. Was it just to sort out driver details for this comp?

If so, Kaizer Mk3 will be driven by my teammate (George Speirs) and Critical Damage is for whiteboards only, but it doesnt seem like its going to get the rebuild it needs beforehand (lack of time and money, as always!) so may well not be there.

Love the amount and quality of robots in the list - hopefully will be a kick-ass event.
Cmon spinners - lets take this one this time!

That sort of happened to me.., but it was driving Pussycat though. Driving it outside my house for a bit of practise, and hit a lamp post. but then about 2 mins after that a police car comes past and stops and realised what it was and his son loved PUssycat etc etc.. but said on a serious note, can you take it inside, your operating a heavy peace of machinery in a public area so meh lol.
