[Mastodon2]

That Nuts thing is fking st, did they even test it?


Ho ho ho, Razer out. Arrogance overcomes experience.

This is sooooo good! Great memories and nothing has really changed. Couldn't be happier

fk off with your sausage rolls. You and your daughter have had your 5 minutes on telly.

Terrible TV production with the arena, coloured lighting horrible, poor camera work, bad direction and stop cutting to the audience during a battle.

So much untested stuff here. If the Carbide team had tested that they'd know they were going to blow the motor by spinning it at full speed and then slamming it to a dead stop against something.

Loving this. Much better TV than Sunday 8pm has been recently

I remember Robot Wars had a roadshow type thing years ago, and a few robots came along - I remember thinking the same about one of them... but can't remember what it was called... a huge yellow flat thing, with a double prong/flipper up front? Whatever it was, it was huge!

I doubt team Nutz have ever seen a grown woman naked.

We need mwstewart to have a go at this.

Really dislike the filming/editing. Turned it off purely because of that.

Too many obscure "arty" angles, Cuts to quickly. Cant get a real sense of whats going on, Too many flashing lights. Why cant they have just filmed it normally like all other shows.

Enjoying this.

We've been to this for 8 years running. They didn't have it this year because of the filming. Really good afternoon and very similar to tv show.

The ball and chain thing was a nonsense. Low with a flipper and good armour from an attack above works best.

Edit: scratch that idea.

The look on the Behemoth driver's face after that fight, it looked like the arse had dropped out of him.

[CoolHands]

Carbide looks like an instant classic. Great destruction.

Agree filming is not great it misses action. Need more cameras and better editing.

Well done Nuts, truly the spirit of the game.

[stuartmmcfc]

I wouldn't want to face carbide
