Was certainly a good relaxed day compared to the previous full on event! Rain was so damn annoying, and look at today... perfect.
Some good discussion about future public events and avenues we can explore was had, as soon as Pia is back in town i'll see what serial space can offer us in future.
Everyone be sure to watch Nyant vs Exorcist... And the final XD ashtrays flying death shot on exorcist... mmm _________________ ( •_•)

Fantastico, thanking you muchly Mind if i post one or two of the good ones to our youtube?
So the original season dates are way out of whack. Between now and the qld event there is room for another of our own, maybe around early november late october (5-6th november?)
It would be good if we could do something featherweight related. Whether it be an all out event for them or just some battle testing with the other classes as the main competition. I'm really indifferent to it.

We should definitely have a Featherweight 'shakedown' day before the Nats; we can knock some old frames about and discover all the loose connections etc before it really matters. Those dates sound good, I'm pretty flexible about the timing.
Put as many of those videos up on YouTube as you want!

yeah agree, id like to have some driving around sparring fights to make sure it all still works and smack a giant billet of steel around, but its a bit stupid of us to ruin all our robots a month before the big one. Should have done them this event past if we wanted to give ourselves enough time.
What other class should we run. Ants? be a bit of a bugger converting the arena back and forth for feathers and beetles. _________________ www.demon50s.com - Minimoto parts

I'm all for ants with feather shakedown comp.
Should play tag or soccer with the feathers, would get some fairly important driving practice in. _________________ ( •_•)

Had an awesome day, even though my car was stolen and burned that morning lol. But who cares! I got sweet revenge on some robots, got a few good hits in and had a blast!
Jumping in to say I have about 500 photos from the weekend event. Will be giving them to Andrew on a cd this weekend
