I like both of Daves ideas, especially the dragracing. Iain mentioned this
earlier, and we talked about it at one of the dinners. It would be relatively
simple to build, and a no brainer for programming. Pushing blocks out of your

my programming done before the event :) ). Actually, Calum, what exactly does
running an event entail? Keeping score? Scheduling? What else?
As far as the dates go, both are good for me.

getting into the lego robotics thing, and wants to make a sumo bot... Are the
sumo bots finally going to die out? I guess a drag racer would be just as easy
to build...
