and to have a challenge that has your robot play a token beep to force
inclusion of the RCX is lame.   If Calum is so gung ho about pipe
racers, AND needed the RCX then i suggest (again) a 3-D pipe race maze.
put in a few T's and now you have to have a robot that can search. and

such a way you can't solve in multiple approaches.

So 90 deg pipe racers alone is a valid contest, RCX or not.
