Subject: [alt-beam] UltraLight Sumo???
I think we should start an "UltraLight" weight class for sumo and or robot warriors. Now we could have BEAM sumo matches too!
A smaller ring would be used, and there would be a maximum weight and a minimum speed that the bots must travel. This way people wouldn't be concentrating on trying to make there's the heaviest so it couldn't be moved.
I really don't know how regular sumos work, (non RC ones I mean) so this may not be possible, but oh well. There could maybe be a solar class and a separate class for battery powered.
Anyway, just an idea.
Chris
