10 am is traditional With the number of bots registered, we should get plenty of battles and still have an early finish.

Just copying the 5.5 Gb of clips up to my computer for editing. The event was excellent fun, although we definitely need more spinners and fewer pushy matches.

I concur with the pushy sentiments. Though better to turn up with a pushy bot, than no bot at all.
Also I think I planted some ideas into Jeff's mind to make a third type of beetle other than spinner/pushy.
Also I will be starting work on the fast traxx beetle which will have active weapon goodness. Probably start work on the weapon tomorrow actually. Will definitely need to use failsafing receiver for active weapon bot. _________________ Farnsworth - "I hate these nerds. Just because I'm stupider than them they think they're smarter than me."
