Win a trip to AWS re:Invent 2023
On the 1st of February an AWS DeepRacer Innovate Preseason Race will begin and will continue for the whole month. Note: you can participate in the race regardless of whether you intend to take place in the conference or not!
As I have mentioned, this year there is a serious prize: the first place winner will qualify into the AWS DeepRacer 2023 Championships during the AWS re:Invent conference in Las Vegas. If you win, you will receive tickets to Las Vegas, a hotel room, conference access and pocket money and, last but not least, a chance to compete for the title of the 2023 champion which comes with more prizes, a trophy and bragging rights. You will also meet all the organisers of the DeepRacer League and the AWS DeepRacer Community members from around the world.
This is a third ticket for the 2023 championships. The winner will be joining the 2022 champion Yi-Li and the 2023 re:Invent Open Qualifier winner Daryl Jezierski racing as PolishThunder.
The race will be held virtually in time trial format and you will be able to submit your models multiple times. It will be held on Fumiaki Loop. So be sure to go into the AWS DeepRacer Console in your AWS Account, check out the rules and join the fun!
