rocket launchers, oil slicks, or my favourite, a cloaking device

the latter might make it hard to race though

I had a mechanical version of this in operation at Southport.

Just a shame electronics gremlins killed the 4wd racing for me as it was working well.

maybe it could auto inflate a blow up doll attached to your car, to distract the opposition. I'd call her 'Jenny Jubblies'

Or press it to inflate 'jenny' at the end of your race so it's ready in your tent for when you get back....

o man!!

def a button to flip the car back onto its wheels!
....a SRIMEC....acourding to robot wars....Self RIghting MEChanism Yes I'm sad.

Id have some 'Ben Hur' style wheels spikes (for those younger drivers, look it up on the tinternet), so that when you went next to a competitior you press the button and they'd pop out and wreck the other cars wheels.

Problem with heat seekers I would have thought is that the nearest source of heat would be your motor/ESC

Would that matter though. Just sit on the line, forward (1 lap), reverse, forward (2 laps), reverse..... No one would see what you were doing.

You'd have to get a reverse ESC though.
