66 teams gathering at the competition
      As informed by Mr. Hoàng Văn Ninh, lecturer of Department of Mechanics-Electrics-Electronics, the chief referee of the fight, HUTECH RACE is annual academic race and has risen to fame and attracted many universities in the country. Inspired by the nation of Japan, the race path is designed an H-shaped lap, 30 cm wide and sports a tracking sensor (INE) to help the racing devices navigate.
Good acceleration and programming strategy proved winning trick
   In the tournament phase, each team had 2 opportunities consecutively to race in as less time spent finishing the lap as possible, which didn’t make the teams so much worried. However, the further they went, the more challenges they faced, especially in the stage of choosing the best candidates for the championship.

  The finals were the playground of experience and bravery
 
     Dr. Nguyễn Hùng- Vice Dean of Department of Mechanics-Electrics-Electronics said: “This is a tricky racing lap with lots of slopes, V-points and A-points overlapping, which caused the racing devices to slip off the road. So, to the team members, great programming skills, proper design language are required. To the first-time attendees, this should be a big challenge.”
 
       In the finals, in order to bring the competitors fairness, each team raced head-to-head twice. Finally, with the superiority in programming techniques and profound experience, HUTECH SPEED won hands-down in both the times.

   Mr. Hùng added that the main part of the racing devices was integrated circuit boards, including an AVG circuit, an accelerating board and a microcontroller. But, to win the race, HUTECH SPEED had their own know-how of navigating and accelerating at the right time, and best strategies of “speed up, stop down” and great stability.

Large-scaled race of more than 40 universities and colleges
   This year’s competition had attracted more than 40 universities and colleges in HCM and South of Vietnam. Some came from some provinces, such as University of Cần Thơ, Vĩnh Long’s University of Technical Pedagogy. Specially, there were 3 teams from Lê Hồng Phong High School, HCM.
