After S.L.A.M we built a fully gasoline driven robot called K.I.S.S

K.I.S.S was the first robot to lose  a fight in a Battlebots event. I'm almost proud of that. He.He....

Then came Liquid Lunch (Hydraulic crusher too heavy), Electric Lunch (Pusher), Half Gassed (half Gasoline driven and half electric driven hybrid pusher), Vendetta (gasoline powered spinner), Snack Break (Antweight Wedge) and finally Evelyn a Modified Dawg (pusher) (Four time Heavyweight champion 2003)

At latest count I have been involved in about 41 robotic projects so far.

We  have Won!! The 2006 , 2007 and the 2008 Power Tool Drag Racing event(s) in the Super Stockclass and the 2008 Funny Car class!! (see the links below)...

Yep it's been a long strange trip all right.... Follow the links to see what we have been up to.....

The Robot Fighting League (RFL)
In 2003 Several of the Event Organizers and builders got together and formed a Natiowide Robotic Combat League with a common rule set to make the sport more flexable and better for the builders.

Theres been a heck of a lot of events since then, all across the United States with builders and machines from all over the Earth.  Hundreds of  folks working together, competing against unique creations and learning from each other as well.

If you are interested in Robotic Combat then check out the RFL. New Builders, Friends, Sponsers and Fans are always welcome. Visit The RFL website
