Weight classes: 150g fleaweight, 1lb Antweight, and 3lb Beetleweight. (RFL rules)

For standard insect classes:
All active kinetic weapons that are legal in the RFL ruleset are permitted, we have a fully enclosed and safe arena.
Arena has a 12" wide drop zone on one side and is fully enclosed by lexan. Floor is steel. Magnets are allowed, but if it is found that your robot can suspend its weight upside-down, it will be disqualified. Flamethrowers allowed with approval in advance.

Matches are a standard three minutes, with the winner determined by push-out, knock out, or crowd decision.

Registration fee only $10 per robot, enter as many as you like.

Weigh-in starts at 9am, competition starts at 11am.

Gift Certificate Prizes will be awarded to the winners of each weight class. GCRS is now registered with Botrank.com, so the results of this event will be ranked nationally!

*if there are fewer than 3 robot entries in any one weight class, that class tournament will be canceled. Weight classes with fewer than 6 robots will be run as a round-robin tournament.
