Pay me what? The hell are you talking about. You obviously haven't seen my paypal acct balance lately....




BTW in that RG 2010 vid Prof Chaos does a legit double flip. K2 does a sick flip too. So awesome.

I hear that a japanese company is going to buy the rights to your electric motorcycle for $4.2 mil.... so you'll be on the beach sipping MaiTai's soon.....

btw: tell us about your NEW bot..promise we'll keep it on the down low...

Man I hope something like that happens soon. I never want to get a real job.

As for new bot, nothing yet. Not even a design. It's just that for the last, I dunno, half decade I've always built or helped build something. Maybe I should focus on the bike this year... A MaiTai sounds good right about now.

Nice highspeed video on this guy's channel.....here's one of the touro bots (single tooth drum)

Marco informed me that all of Riobotz's drums were single tooth, except for Maximus which was a double. Their dovetail single tooth design was successful, but seem to need a little improvement.

Nah, don't do that.....just give me a junior G man badge.....lol

I don't need any stars...just wondered if anyone noticed....

you went and did it...now Cody is getting all nervous..that his TOP DAWG ranking might be in jeopardy....I wanted to sneak up on him......

Slo-Mo is amazing:

One of my favorites is the slow mo of last rites hitting Touro maximus's drum full force in a vertical plane.

I stay in touch with Marco from Riobotz, in that we share single tooth drum R & D findings, and he told me that TMax's stainless steel drum body really took a beating from that hit.

it can be seen at around 1:54 of this slo mo video

As much as I love slow motion and classical music (and I actually do), where can we find normal speed footage of those matches. They look intense!

RJ, the stars that you and cody have are from a different set of stars than everyone else's automatic stars, because you've got more than 1000 posts. I can give you 5 other stars if you want, instead of the one special star... so Cody can stand all on his own... haha.

look around? Im not sure how many are up yet. give it time.

When i was watching tombstone and TMax the bots werent even close and stuff was still flying around insane.

My favorites still blender mini and exterminator i think

Naw...take away my stupid stars and give them to Cody....

I quote from Top Gun (kind of) "the plaque for second place is down in the ladies room...."

My favorite is my very first time driving a combat bot.... the debut of Sting vs Wallop.

It totally went downhill from there....

lol im not telling which fights i drove in :X

Pretty cool:

thought this was pretty cool

Ya...I got to see a bit of Touro light's dovetail tooth

Who is the older gentlemean with the Ti bladed alu horizontal spinner???

Something tells me that his bot didn't do so well.... or am I wrong? (again)

Man Robogames looks amazing. I think I might enter into that competition next year.
They certainly don't disappoint with sparks, which is obviously a crowd pleaser.

Well maybe I was saving my budget this year so I could do a 120 next year.
you don't know. YOU DON'T KNOW!

or to buy blender?!

or maybe, like always, I'll make a budget appear out of nowhere at the last minute, and build something totally ridiculous!
