Something we noticed during our trials was that the truck ran at different speeds depending on how long it had been running for. When we realized that warming our truck up first would give more consistent results, we began warming it up before each test.

I and my two lab partners spent about three weeks programming a PICchip, in assembly language, to move this truck in an oval and have it return to the spot it started at. We used pulse width modulation, interrupts and a lot of tweaking of timing to make it loop and return to the same spot.
