also i'd like to add that oundle mill xmas events used to run robots in a car park with no protection, i fought King B and Tornado with TX108 while running round behind it because we had no signal, Exterminator with its disc ran at full tilt while we stood a few feet away.
this was 2003-2004
It was events like this that the FRA was brought in for, its a dangerous sport and it needs the governing body to do its job which it has been doing.
