Grant and James are away snowboarding (hard life for some eh?) so it will be after this week at the earliest that the draw happens but to be honest, it will probably be closer to the competition

We have something like a 3 in 1 chance of coming across NST in the qualifiers.

When will the live draw be for the fights?

I can't be the only one itching to find out who we will be facing.

I just enjoy hearing James have to commentate on the fights during the competitions. Morning wood vs boner would be a cracker

We won't have time to make a new Bitza so entering 2 wooden robots instead!

Binky Is pretty much done. Got some thrust bearings coming to help the disc spin freely but we are fitting GR02's o that will take a bit of work to make the new mount holes.

Conker on the other hand is in bits. I didn't leave enough space for the wiring so now I am having to create a loom that runs under the HDPE so that I have enough space. But with all my university work I am worried that it wont get done in time!

Planning a new spinner to hopefully be ready in time. Needs to be done right tho. I hopefully will be on the reserved list.

Hinged, lower angled wedges added to the front, possible replacement front wedge panels (currents ones are a bit chewed up, thanks Boner ), and a nylon lid so I can get the weight for some wheel protection for fighting NST.

Upgrade is to have a robot that is actually semi decent, so not being finished the night before and actually having working batteries are the plan for Massacre :P
I'm sporting a 2mm ti base plate, which will be less likely to get shredded and bent like the aluminum i used last year, different weapon and some grippyer wheels.

My aim for the champs is not to eat as many Hot Dogs from the food kiosk, cost me a bloody fortune last year!
