Marayong Season5, Round 7 - 01/11

Its a final scramble for championship points! Will Dylon win rookie AND over-all points? Could be...

Scissorhands will be there with better drive motors and a new Mag motor, ready to deal out some pain.

Do we need a build / arena fix-up day before the event? I am pretty keen for a PnP scavenge for a starter motor as well.

dunno if ill be there yet ey, sending back scorpion controllers and sidewinder to Chris this week for repairs so unsure if itll arrive back with time to get everything done right.

May knock something else together, dunno ey, sorta feel like a event off to get stuff dealt with properly but if i do ill still come to help out on the day

Also spun disc up finally last night, its extremely scary, 3kg disc going at what sounds like almost 6000 rpm Smile

ill be there to keep my nice lead that i have somehow developed and with a working beater this time Very Happy
have had plenty of time to get it going this time unlike before with the rushed job and the lack of driving, all i can say is wind could make the beater spin this time thats how smooth it runs now which is quite good hehe

yet to spin it up with the new setup but will be in the next few weeks

cerberus - if you need to get me on msn or come around (only like 2 minutes down the road) that thing should take like an hours worth of work to get it going very reliably Cool

So whats the latest?? 6 robots could still take it out the season depending on certain scenarios but stranger thins have happened.
Im under the impression there could be 6 spinners?mixed with a brick and a wedge or 2 this could make for a very interesting round.

While I am sure I recall us saying "Never again!", I wouldn't mind delaying a week as I had family stuff I was going to cancel. If we can get Angus and Jake along, plus more time for Andrew to finish Orbit, then it's worthwhile.
