This year is looking to be a great year actually. Especially from what I've seen at IF. There is a real enthusiasm amongst the NSW people there. We are all keen to get some fights on, just needed a bit of repair and recovery to put in a good performance.

Bring it on!

Just about everyone preferred the May 2nd date, so they could rebuild after IF. Would it be a good idea to have a quick arena repair day on the 18th?

The 4th of may is over 3 weeks away seems a bit far off to me but if thats what it is ok.
The arena will definatley be done before then so no fix day would be needed.
Who ever left the huge mess in the arena after the demo day should hook up a trailer and clean up the crap all over the place,that would be appreciated

The new floor has been cut to size and biscuited at 300mm centres .the underside has been undercoated so on Tuesday the top coats will be sprayed on then all is needed is installation.
Has anyone cleaned out the arena yet??

I am still waiting on a replacement weapon shaft, its getting a bit worrying. Apart from that Scissorhands can be ready, just not with many spares.

I've just discovered a schedule conflict here.

May 2nd is a wedding at which im the best man it starts 1pm but its at Windsor, and since im involved i cant really be mucking about in the morning with anything else...

Bort is also going i beleive

What's going on? Now we have another 3 builders out - do we move it another week, cancel, or have a 4 to 5 bot event?

bugger. 100% for both of mine at the set date anyway. would suggest the sunday of that weekend but id guess bort and jaemus wouldnt be in too good a shape

Sunday is sounding good to me, we can trash their bots while they can't drive straight!
