RARS Race Report & News About Upcoming Races July 1st, 2001 RARS is the Robot Auto Racing Simulation, a competition for programmers and an on-going challenge for practicioners of Artificial Intelligence and real-time adaptive optimal control. It consists of a simulation of the physics of cars racing on a track, a graphic display of the race, and a separate control program (robot "driver") for each car. All RARS software and activities are free and open to the public. It runs on DOS, Windows, OS/2, UNIX, Linux, and several other platforms. For more information e-mail to gcp@sjeng.org.

I used the 0.83+patches for this race. Dodger needed some fiddling before it would compile with that. We have 2 'new' drivers by Oscar Guestafsson, and 2 updates. All compiled fine without glitches. I think I'm going to put the standings in a nice spreadsheet and recalculate everything. Some of them look plain wrong. Notably Felix/Doug and Bulle/Marc's scores don't match up, whereas I'd expect them to as they only entered one driver. Greetings, Gian-Carlo
