If you like BattleBots, Robot Wars, Robotica, etc., then come see us at Mech Wars IV June 22nd & 23rd to see what we have to offer up to the metallic combat arenas....

The Mad Cow is 4-wheel driven by two motors drawing up to 130 amps each, with sharpened titanium "Udders of Doom" spinning at over 3,000 RPM!

The Mad Cow had fun at the Minnesota State Fair, Mech Wars III, and is ready for combat at the Mech IV event June 22nd-23rd. Come on down and watch the carnage! Tickets available through Twin Cities Mech Wars

The Mad Cow charged bravely into Team Whyachi's bot 'Why Not' in Mech Wars III and held her own (Simultaneous knock-out). She scored a win against 'Peapod', but lost in the third round to Team Pharmapacs 'Little Pharma'.
