I'm afraid you are going to have to change the chassis to get it close to the MW weight limit. The front end can be shortened, and the wedge will be steeper, and you can lose a few kgs from the Snapper2 extender holding the wedge on. The razors can also be attached perpendicularly using the side AP to attach it to the DDT, and that'll give you a faster swing, and they'll hit the opponent at the same time, causing more damage.

In THAT case,give me a idea for REMOVING weight!

Tell your bot to lay off the McDonalds.  ;)

Or shrink your chasis a bit. You could drop two razors. You should be underweight then.

BUMP AND DP.
Ive decided to make a new bot showcased.

Mr Punch, eh? That's also the name of my old BBEANS6 entry.
 
Anyway, I could recommend attaching ramplates along the front wedge using angle connectors (to create a protective ramming shield/wedge), using two Snapper Wedges, and making the bars with the weapons stretch sideways, as opposed to upwards- it provides a bigger and wider area of attack, allowing you to 1-hit KO and/or flip your opponents more easily.
 
That, and I'm probably going to get killed for this, you can stack another black battery, and you could trim the chassis down slightly, particularly around the wheel area, in order to provide more protection to the wheels.

Chop off enough of the chassis so it'll be a MW

Yeah look what happens when you don't take advice

Used as a response to Enigma's recent post, this works well.
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

Well, it was a bit of an exaggeration. It's not AS bad as his first robot, but it's still crap. (to put it bluntly)
I think that LRA2 just doesn't try anymore.

It's not a FoF-style clamp. FoF clamps do have their hammer burst on the flipper arm. Plus this is mostly worthless, as it has no weaponry.

Nar,You may have mod powers but you cant go and edit stuff like THAT for no reason.
And FYI,There HPZ motors running the rubber wheels,a DDT powering both bracket wedges,and 2 ddt powered flippers.
Any ideas?

Oh, but there is a reason...

If you did not noticed, you posted an URL of your bot so we had to CLICK to see your average bot. I changed the tag to an IMG to actually HELP and make the reading of your bot easier, did not disturbed your post in any way and then you COMPLAIN ?

No need to state the obvious, LRA2.

If it is obvious, then there is absolutely no need to explain it !

And it's my JOB to be nasty. "Villain" isn't just a title, you know.
