i hopefully will be coming to this event. Will be brining two ant weights, Berserker and Psycho Ant
Berserker if any of u remember was the 4wd one back in aws 13. Did well at the aws, won the practise comp and came 4th in the main one. For some reasson though I never rebuilt it. reasson why was that I made complecated drive systems from then and 4wd would be difficult. But since then I have simplified my drive systems (the updated smaller gear box caused more problems then fixed). This now means I can bring back berserker *cheer*
I have nearly finished the new psycho ant. It looks a tad different from its normal shape mainly due to it getting a little bit bigger. Im not entirely happy with the shape, but im resisting touching it till the event so I can at least battle test the shape.

Any how guys its been a long time since I have competed. Back at aws 15, over a year ago. Most inactive I have been since aws 4 so........be nice :P

People keep asking if I'm coming to this, but it looks like its gonna be too expensive for me this time according to the internet. I'll go into the station and check prices on a personal level (they are often quite different from what the net says), but if it remains that price, I think I'll have to give it a miss. First event I'll miss since I started coming too! :(
