* Important Note: Due to restrictions imposed during the COVID-19 pandemic, ROAR competitions for 2020 and 2021 seasons will only host the S1 series until further notice.
ROAR provides a Python-based racing simulation environment that allows contenders to race their autonomous AI agents. Contenders can fully train and test their AI algorithms without any vehicle hardware.
For more detail about the S1/S2 series competition, please take a look here.
The ROAR reference hardware and software uniquely supports contenders to manually race their vehicles in virtual reality. The competition will pit different players to demonstrate their racing skills in 1/10 RC car style.
For more detail about the V1/V2 series competition, please take a look here.

A1 series is the pinnacle of the ROAR program, where user-developed AI agents will need to fully and autonomously control a RC vehicle to complete 10 laps of the challenging physical race track as in the V1 series. The ROAR program provides a reference design of the ROAR vehicle system that allows seamless deployment of autonomous racing agents between Software Simulation (S1) and Autonomous Racing (A1)
