Concept:
A bit like the robotic maze racers, but with 360 degree 4 wheel steering / 4 wheel drive that humans couldn't use effectively without assistance from PID systems and other tech you would see in, for example, vectored thrust flight systems.
The competitive robo element comes at a (much) later stage, when deep learning serves to improve the machine's lap times far beyond human capabilities. Starting with phase 1, the main goal is to provide a fun racing experience for the human racer.
