Thanks Stephane!   
(fingers crossed on the thoughts of racing with a Lunar Robot!)

The Cabinet for Robot Racing is closed today...
But I was able to sneak a peak at a few old toys trying to show some speed to the race officials for next weeks thrilling action...
Will one or more of these blokes be racing next week?
Follow this thread to to see...  
cheers!

So... again, we appear to have another clear cut winner, in the Haji Trooper...
But no...  Mr Porthole is asking for some sort of investigation...  suggesting that there was something holding him back...?

Holy %#%  !!
Who thought that just let the toys play a bit would lead to such issues.
Cheers,

Ah, just let them shoot it out. LOL!

I'm not sure how that old cabinet would hold up to those advanced space rifles...

A fun photo - but these are not the Robot Racer's that you seek...


Here is the link for race #4.   
No audio feed - I wanted to enjoy a little Thelonious.   
Play by play is in the vid comments.   
Cheers,

Love the recent vids! The kaleidoscope effect is very nice. I'm not sure how many of you had Dairy Queens (ice cream place) growing up (circa 1969-70) , but the one by us in Ohio had a neat display with the same effect.  I'm hungry now.

I will check into making a little concession stand for the attendees of the races!    Dilly Bars and Buster bars for everyone!    ...or just me and the cat, lol.

Lets see it bend over and lean back then break into a racing stride.

I don't see any robots beating Alpha Strider in the stlye points category 🙂    
Speed, maybe... including a couple of your other robots, John!    

I will probably do another vid Sunday am - wee...!

That one is fast!

Stephane - that little Mortoys Robbie had stopped working for a couple of years!   It was just luck that he decided to wake up for this event!
I had thought about running one of my Mr. Flash robots in a race - they are pretty fast, but very erratic... probably see a crash for certain 🙂

Alpha Strider may be in trouble!

He will always have the flair going for him, but some of the speedsters are coming on now!

checking the footage of my security cameras... 
It appears as iff some of the robots have been trying to get that Yoshiya's ear - maybe to see if they can join the races... 
or, becasue that's about all that old Sparky has left?
