for sure Very Happy

I thought regular comps was what we were working towards... I don't mind travelling as well if a round robin style comp was organised - some events here, some at kilkevan, and some where-ever arenas are made in Qld.

Quite happy to host them all if that's what everyone wants after seeing the facilities this weekend, and seeing what the next stage of development is to bring....

to solve any lunch problems, I'll put on non-BBQed sausage-inna-bun (with onion and sauces, of course)
I'm also providing tea, coffee and milo to all that want it. There will also be ample ice for keeping stuff cold that you may BYO, I think Marto said something about trying to get some cans of softdrink too....

(turns out the local is very unreliable with its operating hours on a Sunday)

a welder, drill press and grinder will be available on the day too....

note of advice, make sure everyone brings a power board with them. 240v outlets often get scarce here at marayong hehe

best of luck on sunday, make sure you all give that arena a good christening lol

If we fire Annihilation up and the blades get up to speed, we'll Christen the arena, with or without our blades attached.

Well the polycarb is up and it looks good. There is now a bumper on both ends which is plank and some 16mm ply (ran out of plank). Everything should be right for sunday i left quite a bit of 16mm ply there if anyone thinks that they could get through the panel. But i think it is up to standard. The 6mm polycarb looks good and i was tempted to throw something at it but i didn't lol.

Do you think you can get your weapon up to speed in less than a second because that is how much time you'll have before Hellbringer will get accross the arena. Twisted Evil
