I don't know about you, but I would get very worried if my power tools started running around wearing women's clothing. Or any clothing at all, for that matter. Spooky.

I took my sabersaw onto the train the other day, and people looked at me funny and called me mean names. I think they were offended by the nude power tool...
So then I dressed my sabersaw in a sundress, and now none of the other riders bothers me any more. In fact, I have a whole train car to myself...

The Robot Wars phenomenon, begun in San Francisco, gave rise to Comedy Central's "Battlebots" and a similar new show on Tech TV.
I always found Battlebots to be more like remote control cars on steroids. What I want is something with a little more AI, like Honda's ASIMO (or whatever its called), give those guys a sword, shield, and we'll have Light Ages of Camelot - Live!
If anyone wants a mirror site, I found some good ones with Google.

From the article:
This year, he plans on building a 20-foot action monkey -- cymbals and all - - and mount it on an art car to bring to Burning Man. With any luck, it will make a splash.
Hard to imagine where the monkey might not be noticed, but I suppose Burning Man would be there, possibly racing power tools.

they say that this current inspired the Robot Wars, etc - which, incidentally, I have something to say.
Why oh why does nobody builds bepedal (or quadrapedal) robots? you get *TWICE* the weight limit! For that kind of mass, I'd get a robot that has two non-functional legs that will sit and peg the other guy with a retractable harpoon.
people, especially americans, will race damn near anything.

Fuzzy robots??? well i followed your link and had my retinas burned by humans without any fuzzyness. Infact they were nude. Power tool welding geeks in a nude calendar is not my idea of battle bots:D

besides the lawnmower races mentioned by someone else (i've actually seen these on tv, they're pretty funny), people also race:
Tractors

golf carts
rubber band/spool racers
