Raleigh's G105 Punkin Chunk 2001

Onager and Team Carbo had there hands full with some very tough competition and throwing against a very strong headwind, but prevailed with another first place finish. This is the 4th annual Punkin Chunk sponsored by G105 - Click here to go to their web site

Captain Bob came decked out in full armor - prepared for battle!

Team Carbo cranks up the Onager by twisting the torsion bundle - the key to the Onager's power.

A good throw - and there was much rejoicing!

Here is a really nice FAT catapult (FAT= Floating Arm Trebuchet.)

Pumpkin Slayer - always tough, an excellent machine, well designed and built. They finished in second place.

Hyper Tension - coming all the way from Maryland. The weeks prior to this competition they were dishing out a lot of trash talk - but had to swallow their words when the dust of battle had settled!

Team Carbo and the Onager get a nice big check from Bob & Maddy - with a winning  toss of 1191 feet!
