LE MANS! And the Masters of the Endurance Race!

I must say, I do like this design very much indeed- he reminds me a lot of GBH2 from Robot Wars. With some good statting, I can see him doing well.

If we see your entire stat board we can give you some advice on that front.

I'm also seeing some similarities to GBH 2, looks pretty good.

Reminds me of a bot DSC built in RA2 a while back. Real slick dude.

New substitute heavyweight called Silverflash, he has a true front hinged flipper and the body is the shape of a loaf of bread, It's edges are al curved to prevent itself getting stuck to it's side.

Can easily self right if upside down thanks to the flipper itself. 4WD driven too :)

Stats:

Speed: 7

Traction: 6

Torque: 3

Weapon: 6

Armor: 7

Looks fantastic&#33; Visually, it reminds me a lot of Storm Force and M2. I would personally take one point off the Torque and use it to have equal Traction (Ergo, better control and stability.), but you're definitely becoming really good at designing robots.

Oh I see what you mean... the sticker on the side is like the one off Storm Force, take note M2 was my favorite back when Robot Wars was on.

I mean, if you can take down Tiberius and Pussycat in one heat, you know you're doing something right. :proud:

Oh and the bread type body came off a robot called Ultor. I decided to think of a better design. Instead of an axe I wanted Silverflash to have a really good flipper.

After a few weeks coming up with a new Super Heavyweight substitute, Ladies and Gentlemen meet "Capture Point"

Image

Now I know what you are all thinking, that looks like a X-terminator Series 3 version, well it was inspired off it, tracked locomotion, stable and sturdy, has self righting pistons on it's side, but the shape is a bit "cheesy".

Basically I wanted it based on a goalkeeper who captures the ball, instead the robot will catch you and drag you anywhere, with it's speed it can sure give some force, for a Super Heavyweight it'll take some beating.

But then again it's only a Substitute machine so it's not been activated yet, whenever I'm happy with it, I'll activate it.

Nice&#33; Always good to see another Shockwave-like design around, it looks pretty solid.
