GOAL
The goal of Robot Vehicles is to cover a distance of 10 meters in the shortest possible time.
As the sport promotes constructions as close to the real world, all Robot Vehicles should replicate realistic rally vehicles as closely as possible. Creators should take this into account during their experimentation.
TEAMS – COACHES

10. If a team has a serious problem with their robot they are only allowed to change the microprocessor after permission from the Headjudges.
WINNERS
The best finishing time after 2 hours competing is what ranks the final winners.
If after the end of the 2 hours, 2 or more Robot Vehicles have the same time, then they compete in an additional race to determine the final ranking. If the time is still the same the teams are given 10 minutes to make changes to their Vehicle in order to improve their time and then run an additional race.
The Technician will have to scrutinize the team’s Vehicle again and show the referee the improvements they have made.
If any team does not improve then it is eliminated from the Final round and the victory is given to the other team.
If after the improvements the time remains the same then they share the ranking position.
The winning teams are awarded in 1st -2nd, 3rd place separately in each age category and separately for the Lego and Non Lego category.
