We talk through the differences between traditional self-driving problems and those encountered in a racing environment, the challenges in solving planning, perception, control.  We also discuss their upcoming race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, where Madhur and his students will compete for 1 million dollars in the world\u2019s first head-to-head fully autonomous race, and how they\u2019re preparing for it.
