I'll tell you after it has a few matches. I'm thinking it'll do pretty well considering I've had thinner aluminum and 1/8" garolite hold up fine. | |

|  Some wedge grinding and paint to go. Dual pack option for bot hockey, though I'll need to make a second cable extender to allow both packs to reach the adaptor. | |

Tentacle calc claims 20.35ft/sec in 1.02seconds/13.4ft. With wheelspin, it'll be a bit more, but it's still ludicrously fast. | |

| Made some modifications to Kobalos-  It's a blast to drive with the 11:1 sparks in it. One mod isn't visible, I have abec-5 bearings in the frame rails to help support the spark shaft. | |
