DARPA eliminates six more teams from Urban Challenge race

TG Daily
Victorville (CA) – DARPA officials have just eliminated six more teams from any further qualification runs and the Urban Challenge race itself. The eliminated teams are 1. Caltech 2. Mojavaton 3. Team Jefferson 4. Team Urbanator 5. Gator Nation 6. Team Juggernaut.

Four teams are sitting pretty because they have already qualified for the finals and won’t have to do anymore qualifying runs. Those teams are Cornell, Stanford, Tartan Racing (Cargenie Mellon University) and Virginia Tech.

Earlier in the day, six other teams were eliminated. It’s going to be a nail-biter night and day tomorrow as the 23 remaining teams try to impress DARPA judges for the final 20 race spots.
