Why not? It seems like it would make all of the events more popular. Do you
think it would take anything away from any of the events?

We've just been throwing around ideas for BrickFest events. The rules Dave
posted actually sound pretty good, except there needs to be a weight limit. I'm
sure people can fit several pounds of batteries & motors into a 10 inch cube. A
few years back, there was a sumo robot at BrickFest that was about 12x12x3, and
weighed over 6.5lbs. That equates to over 15lbs for a 10in cube.
In addition to the "heavyweight" class, it may be a popular to have a
lightweight class, with a limited number of motors, and no gap between the
tables, for those who fear the fall...
Anyone know if there is a Canadian Tire around here? :)
