When the Indy Autonomous Challenge takes off later this year, all the race cars will look the same â and no one will be behind the wheel.
The IAC is a university-led self-driving car race taking place Oct. 23 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway with $1.3 million in prizes on offer. The first three teams to cross the finish line in 25 minutes or less after 20 laps (that s about 50 miles) will win what s believed to be the first head-to-head autonomous race.
