Can someone help me, I forgot the name of a game?

Can someone tell me how called a game that I played long ago: you need to mount various components (radars, weapons, triggers etc..) on some types of hovercraft with which then you play: "Capture the Flag", a kind of sumo, races, etc..

During the competition you have NO CONTROL over the vehicle!

hmm that sounds interesting but I've never heard of such a thing. I think this be one of those pure statistical games

Interesting game for his time but is not that.

I understand that it's hard to imagine for who has not played the game, but I repeat:

"During the competition you have NO CONTROL over the vehicle!"

That's why seems so particular, it was like programing a race and than just sit and watch. It's something like what happens in "Robot Wars Extreme" but without external control.

I can say a lot of details about the game but I think does not help;
what is special about is :
you must attach some components to a vehicle so that you had to win competition (WITHOUT control during the competition).

Example of what I remember:
the speed race was pretty simple: you need only about two radars, two triggers, a steering wheel and an engine; you place a radar to the left front, one to the right, if the radar signal left border, pulled steering wheel to the right and vice versa, etc ...
