abstract
| - The Lightweight Championship of Robot Wars: The Second Wars was an event which took place during the filming of Robot Wars: The Second Wars. This event consisted of a single battle between five robots weighing no more than 27kg.
* This was the only appearance of every robot competing in the battle, as the Lightweight Championship for the following series was cancelled.
* This battle was broadcast as a part of the Grudge Matches Special at the end of the Second Wars. However, like the other weight classes, only about 10 seconds of the battle was shown on the televised show, as only the highlights were shown.
* At the end of the battle, all mobile robots were asked by the judges to show that they were still mobile, with Slippery Strana pulling off several twirls and spins, this being more than the other competitors, and being granted the win. This resulted in a scuffle in the pits after the battle. "All 5 robots obediently stopped, and we waited patiently for a Judges' decision. And we waited some more. And some more. Then, to help the Judges finalise their scoring, the 'voice from above' asked all roboteers to move around the arena a little. Charlie took this opportunity to spin another pirouette and to zip a couple of times - very visibly - across the arena. One of our competitors seemed to take offence at this and Charlie found himself in a dangerous post-battle push-and-shove, which mercifully didn't last long." — Silppery Strana's website
