Amish Rebellion was formerly Mad Cow’s Revenge, which competed at Battlebots 5.0. I had been friends with Greg at Team Mad Cow, and worked out an agreement to buy the bot as he was moving on to a new version simply named MCR that had a refined design and parts. I picked up Mad Cow’s Revenge at Motorama 2003.
Short summary of retirement was due mostly to funding to make upgrades. The drive batteries could not last a full three minutes at full speed. It did however perform greatly as a wedge. The most memorable moment was going against Rambyte at Motorama 2004.
