End Game is a 250lb, four-wheeled, orange box of intimidation

End Game itself is a 250lb, four-wheeled, orange box of intimidation with a single-toothed vertical flywheel, has been sponsored by the Faculty of Engineering/Te Herenga Mātai Pūkaha since it entered the global competition in 2018. It’s powered by four custom lightweight machine motors that notably have never been damaged. During battle, it is operated by two drivers with help from 14 radio receivers.

The focal point of this monster is a 50lb disc that spins at 6,000rpm, capable of tearing through 50mm steel. It boasts four powerful motors making up the drive train, and its frame is built out of indestructible aluminium with a steel front wedge, giving it the ability to stand up to solid attempts at destruction.
