Hi, Mathgeek(2^^13),
Welcome to Wikipedia! I did some wikification on your DARPA Grand Challenge article; sounds like a really cool project. I imagine your team is currently in the process of selecting a donor vehicle - is it really going to be a full size 4-wheel drive? I'm a little curious - in the DARPA rules there is discussion of an emergency shut-off "panic button" which can be pressed by somebody near the car, at walking speed - but won't these things be going at least 30 MPH to cover the 300 miles in 10 hours? Sounds dangerous if it gets out of control; the e-stop requirement (remote-control kill) is obviously a must. Good luck! Harris7 18:26, 5 Aug 2003 (UTC)
