Just curious, are ICE's allowed ? I know we were talking about problems with ventillation a while back but I cant imagine it being too bad. _________________ Jeff Ferrara

I think we should let jeff do what ever he's got planned...
Perhaps we just stick a fan in after, not like we have back to back matches like in the states... _________________ ( •_•)

At least two people have to go into the arena right after each match and unload bots. I went into the arena with an extinguisher when Sproing caught fire at robowars Brisbane - I held my breath but the fumes still got to me...
Ultimately, it's Jeff Johnson's call as the EO. _________________ Australian 2015 Featherweight champion

What size ICE are we talking about here?
I think I have mentioned before that the first one to use an ICE or flame thrower has to impliment the extraction fan. Some parts and design at least. Club money can pay for it, but someone will have to actually do something about it.
Jeff can use his ICE this weekend, we`ll just take precautions and assess it on the day.

ive got the cooling fan for cobra, you could get a few of those and just stick them up on top of the front wall to blow air into the arena or suck it out, either one. _________________ www.demon50s.com - Minimoto parts

So we've got a few days till the event, roadkill's done. So what's the line up looking like? Is it going to be yet ANOTHER small event?
Grassy doesn't look like he'll be ready, how about prong and bort?
Oh also Nick, what time suits you? Would it be ok to pick me up from Artarmon station? That seemed to work well in the past. Thanks again! _________________ ( •_•)

Jolt just needs a battery charge and a top cover to rock n roll . How about 9am at the station? I will PM you a street location after I check the map.
If we have six bots or less let's do the FULL round robin event like we did the first time. It was the best event this year for my money...
BTW: special planning session for robowars! _________________ Australian 2015 Featherweight champion

Iv`e been distracted lately with some pressing issues like car repairs and rego. I also have to see about a plummer for the backed up pipes if there is any money left or it might be a bit embarrassing with smelly water in the backyard.
Never fear, El b will be there, but maybe not the Uber, next gen version I was hoping for just yet.

haha Full round robin as long as;
A: ALL other robots must verse all others... including jolt! (not just me every event )
B: RUMBLE! We havn't had one in ages, and although Roadkill was out of action at the end of last event, we should try to get one going this time!
@Nick, 9am is fine, don't know what that street name is running parralell to the train line but that would suit well. _________________ ( •_•)
