Mean Streak

Mean Streak was an invertible box-shaped robot that competed in Series 7 of Robot Wars. It was equipped with four motorcycle flywheels fitted with titanium teeth, spinning at 4000RPM and the robot itself armoured with the material used to make police riot shields (lexan). It had 4HP of push but had a high ground clearance. Mean Streak reached the second round of Series 7, eventually losing to the 13th seed, S.M.I.D.S.Y.. It greatly resembled first round loser Diabolus.

There was a notable incident in the qualifier of Series 7. Mean Streak was fighting Brutus Maximus and was immobilised by a net used by the wooden robot. As these weapons are illegal, the battle was immediately awarded to Mean Streak. Brutus Maximus, however, qualified on a discretionary place regardless.

Series 7
Mean Streak did very little in its first round melee, with the discs not causing much damage, but survived as Hellbent immobilized I Bot One Beta and Araknia. In the second round it faced the thirteenth seed in S.M.I.D.S.Y., where again the discs failed to cause much damage. S.M.I.D.S.Y. eventually lifted it onto the side wall where it was counted out. Sergeant Bash and Mr. Psycho then proceeded to crunch through its armour plating.
