I've seen that challenge on the tele before. Not too many vehicles made it far enought to speak of.

You noticed that they chose to use a Subaru Outback? Isn't that kind of cheating, I mean it should be fair for the other contestants.
THey should already hand them the cash prize.

Notice how many of the students are ACTUALLY from FL. . .
The UCF student team members are: Remo Pillat of Germany, Gary Stein of New Port Richey, Scott Stickler of St. Petersburg, Hao Cheng and Yuping Shen of China, Arslan Basharat of Pakistan and Richard Andres of Orlando.

I heard the CMU car went 200 miles recently but not in the desert
apparently the desert course is full of rocks, holes, grades that must be avoided. you follow guidance with GPS and on-board sensors, no human intervention except the game-ending kill switch if you have to use it
they ran the Hummer around the city park during Spring Carnival (closed streets), the thing looks like it has a couple million bucks into it

I would like to have a robot like the one in the beer commercial. Minus the midget.
On second thought, a midget wouldn't be so bad. Especially a midget chick.

I heard one school in this contest had a Cherokee that ended up flooring it and doing doughnuts.

With aesthetic mods, please. Have you guys SEEN midget chicks? Ugh, too thick for my tastes, fellas.

No, it just means she'll be kicking your ass and licking your ears at the same time.
