Fuck Bitches Get Crystals
+ He only has one point of Speed over me, so it's unlikely he'll be running rings around me, especially with his six wheels compromising his turning, along with his long and narrow wheelbase. We both have perfect Speed/Traction ratios, so he really doesn't have a great deal of drivetrain advantage over me. If anything, my tracks should offer me better control than his 6WD setup.

+ Torque is even, so a pushing match should be a dead heat. In terms of wedge, however, I feel I should have the advantage with my front scoop. I can push that into the ground to increase leverage, which he cannot do with his two smaller and therefore lighter hinged wedges at the front. I should be getting myself underneath him much more than he will be getting underneath me.

+ His weaponry isn't particularly potent, with 7 Weapon compared to the 9 Armour of my scoop, it shouldn't be causing much more than dents, even if he gets to my chassis. I have an 8 Weapon axe against his 6 Armour chassis, thanks to his +2 bonus to the rear plow, so I should be putting plenty of holes in him during the match.

> Head out towards him, keep the front end pointed at him, then get underneath and start hammering away with the axe. He shouldn't be able to get to my sides, and he shouldn't be able to push me. He might be able to reverse away, but then he only has one point of Speed over me, and I'll still be able to give him another couple of shots with the axe. Rinse and repeat. If he does get underneath me somehow, then my tracks will still be giving me purchase with the arena floor, so I should be able to J-hook myself away. Coming in with the plow for him would be suicidal, as I could get underneath that with pretty much no resistance. If I'm offered a chance at his sides, then take it. Avoid the walls and hazards when I'm not on the attack, but if I can pin him somewhere and wail on him with my axe, then do so. Smash him with the axe at every opportunity, and he should be well pepper-potted by the end of the match. KO looks unlikely, but a JD could easily come my way if nothing too surprising happens.

Good luck, Badnik, and may the best bot win. =)

You're just a voice pal, you don't know a damn thing about racing!
I'm going to angle out from the beginning, try to angle inwards after that and then get under and bring him to the arena saw, hopefully severing the tracks. I don't really have a backup plan so good luck Nick.
