Hello,
This is my first post here, and i've never made a robot before.
I'm a secundary school student in BELGIUM, i'm studying maths and sciences.
In two years i'll go studying civil engineer.
I would like to make a robot, and the wall racer looks awesome to a newbie like me.
But, is it recommended to start with such thing, or is that too difficult ?
And what costs it to make one wall racer car ?

Hi and welcome.If you read
Hi and welcome.
If you read the "how to make a wallracer-tutorial" - you will read in the beginning that it suggests that you should start with something like the "Start here", from the top-menu.
Where I started…
This may sound silly but I think most of us started with just a blinking LED. --Small steps my friend.

Yes, me too! LED’s… and
Yes, me too! LED’s… and then a speaker! It was a blast to make them blink and beep!
Ok,To be honest, i have read
Ok,
To be honest, i have read that it’s better to start with something small.
But i hoped that you would day: ok, you can start with a wallracer, it’s going to work…
NO, i would only be treating myself.
I’ll start with a little led robot…
But i don’t understand what it can do… so, it can ride ? and when it see’s a wall it stops and turns ?
Can you give me some more explanation, or where can i find that ?
Greetz !
It can do what you want it
It can do what you want it to do, boy That is the deal. These are home made robots, and you are about to make one
People often ask me "Can it do this and that"? Well… it is a matter of giving it the instructions, you know I even think I have put some suggestions in the bottom. And there are II and III in the how-to… So this answer of "what can it do?" can be a very long one 
Ok =)Uuhm maybe a stupid
Ok =)
Uuhm maybe a stupid question but where can i find the how-to
And where are those suggestions in the bottom ?
I think it’s because of i’m not very good at english that i can’t find it.
No i’m going to sleep, tomorrow i have my last examination and then 2 months no school ( Robo time =) )

Flashing LEDs are the way forward. If you can lfash an LED, you can do ANYTHING with a microcontroller. Subscribe to this and I promise I’ll show you how to do it in a 10 line assembler program sometime soon.

Hey - competition on “Where to start”? 
We will have to change the “Start here”-link to a page that says “Welcome, here are a list of walkthroughs for newbees, select your path”…!
That page could have a nice name like …makerobots.com/start as well!
