I've got a good featherweight in build as well as a proper beetleweight at school (that Ti bar nick is going on a beetle )
lol at least the feather will be ready. _________________ ( •_•)

@Glen: Likewise, not really complaining but Jason has had one of my IBCs for about 6 weeks or more! If I wasn't swapping to Victors I would be screwed!
At the rate I am going, I will only have time for Jolt. Slash has had a token amount of work but nothing like what is needed. _________________ Australian 2015 Featherweight champion

Jasons day job keeps dragging him unexpectedly off overseas at the moment, so apologies on his behalf to anyone who is waiting for IBC repairs. He's hardly been home for more than a few days for the last 2 months.
Hopefully this will be his last trip for a while, since we have some ideas on the drawing board it would be nice to edge closer to production, but they're not getting very far at the moment.. _________________ Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people

Heads-up re Jolt:
Just letting everyone know that Jolt is looking a bit iffy for this event. I have the frame under control and the wedges will be cut by next Thursday but the internal construction, battery packs and electronics is a bit behind. I wouldn't usually be worried at this point, but I have to go to Brisbane for four days and that leaves very little time for mucho work. I would go back to the old chassis except that the IBC seems dodgy and the spare is in Melbourne. If things look dire on Thursday, I will either try shoehorning the Victors into the old chassis or I will bolt a crapload of armour onto Gulp...
Weapons may be limited to harsh language but I will be there one way or another ! _________________ Australian 2015 Featherweight champion

Who said anything about no spinners???
I'm drawing up my evil plans to get Jolt working in some form from up here at Surfer's and there will surely be sninning of some type. BTW: the Gold Coast Meter Maids are amazing, they get their gear off anywhere! I nearly walked into a wall _________________ Australian 2015 Featherweight champion

Jake mentioned that Plan F is looking strong and I will be working on Jolt from now until the event. If the new chassis doesn't come together, then I will beat & weld the old chassis into shape for one more round. The other possibility is getting Subliminal going; the wedges are being cut this week and if they fit OK then it might be less work than resurecting Jolt. _________________ Australian 2015 Featherweight champion
