Qualifying should be interesting, in my view, how's it going to work?
www.youtube.com/robotwarsextreme  its just a bit of extra unique entertainment rather then shoving all entrants into random.org, the faster robots gain a bye round for there efforts.

I felt CC3 was lacking (ahem.. not to mention confusing for some)... after that best/ funniest thread with everyone mentioning CC2 got me thinking I should just stick with what works why change what people like? (same philosophy for Backlash, im getting sick of people being picky when really all they do it for is because they like things the way they are )

I know but if it fails at moving and gets counted out then I should win the award for most realistic replica :P

I was going to enter Typhoon Twins (built off a smartzone so its not a multibot ) but you cant use AI parts except for motors (thus outlawing the shell) Im tempted to try this with a SOW AI http://robotwars.wikia.com/wiki/RT81I get a weight bonus too... I will take all I can get to combat the judge burst users :P

you know I dont understand some of your people sometimes :P
Opinion on the original topic..
DSL was built for what you are wanting... realistic building.
DSL has a good percentage of stock parts already.
Play DSL if you want to build realistic, stock if you want no limit except parts amount (in comparison to DSL)
Self Promotion Opinion on the original topic...
Backlash has realistic building.
and a larger percentage of stock parts then DSL (I think?...)
new variants of your old favorites.
(now I just need to get off my lazy ass and finish the damn thing)

CC2 was probably my favorite all time tournament out of all I hosted. It really did output a lot of awesome stuff...

that is not gymkhana, that is free style drifting.
some call it Gymkhana, some call it Freestyle.. I personally call it awesome... Though I remember reading somewhere Ken Block saying what it actually was but cannot recall what...

They apparently still get monies from it
Hell we can all put in and buy the thing, they will probably make more money then what they have in the last year "selling" it. 66% of the RA2 playing members come for DSL anyway....

4. Crawlers NOT allowed
