Anyone heard about the upcoming 'Ultimate Machine Combat' TV show? I recieved a email from the producer inviting us to form a team to compete. TLC (The Learning Channel) is putting it on and will pay for the ride, shipping to England where the competition is, food and stay for a team of 3 people, and other stuff. Heres what I have found so far-
1- The $$ limit is currently $1000, but teams can add more, if its their $$$. Producer it trying to get more from the sponsors.
2- The team has 1 month to build the rig.
3- It sounds like a 4x4 Demolition Derby, of sorts.
Heres more info-
"Hi Greg
I wondered whether this might interest you?
We are currently making a tv show called "Ultimate Machine Combat". We are looking for engineers and teams of people who have a talent for working with machinery and engines. We would like to set them the challenge of building an ultimate machine of combat to take part in a worldwide competition to be televised later this year.
More details about the show can be found on this website: UMC "
Theres a FAQ on the site, but its still kinda vauge. I am wondering about the terrain, the competetion, etc.....
If anyone is intrested, go for it. I personally have previous commitments that would conflict with the schedule they have.
