Stock Showcases / Scrapyard24c's Stock Garage
« on: November 01, 2012, 12:15:30 AM »
Thought I'd start a thread in the Stock class since I already have a DSL one.

This is Space Junker.  It is probably  the deadliest middleweight I've brought to life.  Thanks to it's weapon, Space Junker is hard to flip and the only reason it has lost was due to a Havok explosion that threw it into one of the pits in the Octagon arena. 











Oh and in case you wonder what Space Junker looks like if it ever gets flipped...

In the mean time, I could use some help with a middleweight of mine.  This is Enforcer.  It's based off of The Matador from Battlebots and the only cheatbot2 component inside it is a Judge burst motor.  It it is very quick (sometimes too quick) and can easily get underneath most of the stock dsl ai but has trouble with robots that have a titanium sheet sticking out from underneath it such as Saber Teeth and The Boxer Returns.  It's flipper isn't too powerful as it was built more for efficiency but it has no trouble self-righting. 










Enforcer's mortal enemy.  #?*! you SlashBack!    :realmad(

Currently modifying Road Boss.  The reason behind why Road Boss is so big is that it's actually a reused chassis from Stock RA2 and in there I had to make room for the Z-Tek motors and Big Volts inside Road Boss at the time.  Unfortunately I forgot to save that version before converting it.

Since this is my first time here, I decided to start off with what possibly is the best rammer I've ever built, Road Boss.

Despite it's weight and size, it is very fast and stable and has be known to do impressions of Storm II throwing out Steel Avenger in the DSL, Blade, and Robot Wars arenas.  It's only weaknesses are it can't self right when on it's roof (can sometimes if on it's side), thin armor (1mm steel), and it doesn't like FBSs.

That reminds me of the original King Krunch scheme :D
Actually the first King Krunch was on leaf springs as seen here.

Thought I'd throw my hat into the ring in case a truck has to back out.

I was just watching Christine on the television and it made me think to create this thread in the Automotive section about famous cars from the movies.  So which ones are your favorites?  I would have to go with the Back to the Future DeLorean.

My 1988 K5 Blazer here was once featured in Off-Road Magazine's Reader's Rides section.

Sweet Blazer, dude. 350?

Yep, fuel injected to be exact.  You can't tell it from the outside, but this Blazer is also a Silverado edition, it's just the badges indicating that are missing.  Still trying to find them.

Quite possibly one of the most hilarious fights in Battlebots history.

Real Robotics Discussion / WTF Moments in Robot Combat
« on: October 27, 2012, 07:03:54 PM »
I know we've seen plenty of crazy, unexpected incidents in RA2 (ie Havok Explosions), but what about in real life?  What are some of the biggest WTF moments you've seen in things like Battlebots, Robot Wars, and any past or current robot combat events?

I'll start with this one.  Ever thought Son of Whyachi was unbeatable?  Well have a look at this.

Just thought I'd post this up as I've hardly seen anything on racing games here.  Now the racing games I'm into are not the kind trying to recreate reality, I prefer the kind where you're trying to wipe your opponents off the road.  This thread is here to post about those games and what are your favorites.

To be honest, any game where you can turn your opponent's cars from speed machines into scrap metal is good with me.

It doesn't matter if the music was made up or if it is an actual track, you can post your favorite video game music videos here.  I'll start with this

Discussion / Your best RA2 flipper bots
« on: March 21, 2011, 03:52:06 PM »
I'm just curious, I know that these can and cannot be effective robots, but I just want to know what your best RA2 flipper robots are.  I'd post a picture of mine but don't know how.  The name of the team this bot is on is The Pit Crew and the name is Overblown.  It is a dragster themed robot built on the DSL version and it's flipper consists of three poly-carbonate panels and is powered by three MAG burst motors.  So what's the best flipper in your fleet?
