Whats the main difference between the Fifteen 2004 DGC participants, so heavily reported, and the actual 7 “Completely Accepted” DARPA Grand Challenge qualifiers?
A3. Fifteen teams report that they raced in the 2004 DARPA Grand Challenge. Only seven of those team were actually eligible to win the $1 Million prize. Axion Racing was the only self-funded “Completely Accepted” team to be eligible for the US Senate funded prize at the start of the 2004 DGC race.
