I think you'll find Andy isn't bothered about the dents, mainly because there aren't any. The scratches to the paint now that's a different matter. SMIDSY makes a fantastic noise when it's hit with an axe (and even better when it only has four bolts in the top so it rattles) and I did find the 10 - whack, 9 - whack, 8 - whack....................countdown quite funny.

It was a good event for us, hydras flipper worked well and the axe buried itself in the floor good and proper. Just needs a bit more work to get it to come back up.

DTK's new motor worked just fine. Got a good test when one half of the Roboteq blew and set it running full pelt.

And WE WON THE BATTLERATZ!!! Dead chuffed with the upgrades and now don't need to charge them after every fight so all good.

Anyway, a great big thankyou to Alan, Dave and Mr Hunter (who's name I can't remember) for helping Paul lug the heavies around all day, hopefully the back will be ok for the next event.

Andy

PS: I haven't missed that bit about classifying SMIDSY as your own!!
