Wow, didn't think I'd get that kind of reply...thanks I have a lot to look into, but before I do, I want to double check on something...I can't use IR for the competition to control my robot...correct?

Even if I can't, I could just build the desired circuit from you're links on you're site, but I didn't get any of those parts in the Kit...so what happens now?

It all looks interesting, I have some reading to do
