On the 25th of April 2019 during the Polish miniSUMO Robotic War, my 4 teams won the first four places! In addition to diplomas and congratulations, members of #RoboticTeamGrudziądz brought with them prizes in the form of 4 drones.
1st place: Artur Będziechowski
2nd place: Arek Czyściecki
3rd place: Kacper Skupiński
4th place: Jan Sobiecki

The weighing of vehicles takes place before the competition. Their weight could not exceed half a kilogram.
