Survival Research Labs Field Trip

In a last minute secret mission, Fishbon Event Lab agents appeared at the Survival Research Labs show on the fringe of downtown Los Angeles Saturday night. The show was spectacular with twisted robots, fire and smoke belching radical fork lifts, two jet fire machines, a two by four pitching apparatus and hundreds of art geeks in attendance. After the victims (including a set of four fake mountain goats, a trojan horse and assorted robot agressors) fell, the scene resembled a post appocalypse high-tech landfill with smoking remains and strange toxic liquids.

Fire Rats and Personal Disorientation Headgear

Seven modified, high performance Fire Rats took on the Rat Baja 10, a treacherous ten foot track at the Fishbon Event Lab. When they were topped off with fondue fuel and set loose pitted against each other in a life and death survival struggle. Some sported bizarre headgear and costumes. There were no clear winners and all were eliminated in the the subsequent showdown. No roses were awarded. But much fin was had by all. Later in the evening, after sampling a bottle of Joseph Stalin's favorite wine, Event Lab denizens switched to Personal Disorientation Headgear. Based on periscope technology, headgear presents unusual viewing options (one eye forward, one eye back, etc.) More innovations to come next week.

Like the high performance machines they are, Fire Rats were modified, pierced and gassed up with fondue fuel. 

Rat Control has two modes: forward and spin (insanely)

End times rat race.
